Wollabot

This version now comes with a completely new API that
makes definition of custom modules much easier, and
without any limits at all. Furthermore a great step has
been taken on the documentation side of the project.
The core now uses SmartIRC for interacting with IRC
servers. It comes bundled with a module for looking up
prototypes for functions in the PHP programming
language and a Google lookup function using the Google
SOAP API.

A couple of user-submitted patches were merged (e.g., a translation module using Altavista's Babelfish translation service). Support was added for CTCP TIME requests, and a couple of methods were implemented to guide users in the right use of Wollabot (a version checker to make sure people are running PHP newer than 4.2.0 and a checker to prevent people running the bot from a Web server, where it is not supposed to run).

The socket code has been completely rewritten to use non-blocking sockets for
better performance. Configuration is now done in an external file, providing
much more clarity to the configuration process. This also gives you the
opportunity to load certain modules for a specific channel. There are three new
bundled modules.
