[19:06:57] [telegram] Is it easy to set up an IRC-Telegram bridge in both directions? [19:16:33] [telegram] @pharosofalexandria (re @bd808: Nemo_bis: great question. I haven’t really thought about a process yet. Want to help me come up with one?) [19:16:34] [telegram] @bd808 knows :) [19:18:06] @pharosofalexandria: I'm using https://github.com/42wim/matterbridge right now and it was not super hard. Getting the Telegram channel number is the trickiest bit. [19:19:27] I need to follow up with Nemo_bis on figuring out a process for folks to ask to have the current bot bridge channels for them too. Nemo_bis wanted to try it out for some other channel (itwiki?) [21:03:07] bd808: it's the "Italian Wikipedia" channel on telegram, which actually is about all sorts of things I'm told, so we could mirror it to #wikimedia-it and both sides would be fine [21:03:43] I think the process should just be "ask the Telegram channel/group admin and let the IRC channel ops block the bot if they're bothered" :) [21:04:20] Especially because access to a Telegram group is retroactive, while posting something on an IRC channel only has an effect on the present [21:05:45] (If the IRC channel is not logged and people are not fine with it being "logged" on Telegram, they can just quit and ask the op to ban the bot) [21:08:18] Nemo_bis: should we make some page on meta to document this? It sounds like a reasonable straw dog proposal to me. Maybe a subpage of the IRC pages there? [21:13:57] bd808: yes, we also have https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/IRC/Publicly_logged_channels on wm-bot [21:14:43] if you already have a page on wikitech about the bridgebot, that would be fine too, a link from Meta is enough [21:15:31] When we have something written down we can notify the IRC GC [21:15:52] I don't think I've made a project page for the tool yet, but I should so I can document start/stop and how to make config changes [21:16:09] I will push that task on my TODO queue ;)
