Bots

  W3C Telecon Resources:
  Zakim instructions

To start the meeting, check that trackbot is in the IRC channel (it usually is). If not, type:

/invite trackbot

Then you can type:

trackbot, start meeting

That should invite zakim and RRSAgent and generally get things ready to go. If it fails for any reason, you'll need to do things manually that trackbot does automatically. At the start of the meeting check that the following bots are running in IRC:

• RRSAgent [documentation]
• Zakim [documentation]
• Trackbot [documentation]

If any are not in the room, type /invite and then the name of the bot

During the meeting you need to set the access permissions on the chat log with this command:

RRSAgent, make logs public

At any time, but most importantly at the end of the meeting, type RRSAgent, draft minutes

This will create the raw minutes page (that the team contact then cleans up)
