+= rbot - The Ruby IRC bot
+
+rbot is a ruby IRC bot. Think of him as a ruby bot framework with a highly
+modular design based around plugins.
+
+== rbot features
+
+* Runtime configuration via irc chat
+* User authentication and access levels for using different bot features
+* Built in infobot-style keywords.
+* Support for underlying fact database (infobot fact files), which can
+  be overridden or supplemented by runtime keyword controls
+* Multi-language support - comes with english, dutch, german, french, italian
+  japanese, chinese and russian definitions so far - more translations welcome
+* Powerful plugin architecture, comes with plugins for:
+  - DNS queries
+  - Babelfish translation
+  - Google searching
+  - Excuse generation
+  - Insult generation
+  - Karma
+  - Checking the weather
+  - Querying slashdot
+  - Doing Math
+  - Per-channel quote storage, searching and retrieval
+  - Reminders
+  - rot13 translation
+  - Check the spelling of a word
+  - Webserver Server: header examination
+  - RPG dice rolling
+  - larting people
+  - conversation stats
+  - more... 
+
+Thanks are owed to the infobot developers - several of rbot's features are
+inspired by infobot and so are some of the default plugins. Thanks are also
+owed to RADKade1, as rbot's quote plugin is a direct reimplementation of his
+"quotesaq" - simply because it's a great quote interface.
+
+Mainly, rbot's fun to play with, although the plugin architecture can be used
+to write very useful modules
