Blobsy 2 RC 8 released

Blobsy 2 just had another release checked out today. This latest release - Blobsy 2 RC8 - is, as usual, available at the Blobsy website.

I've fixed a few bugs in this latest release that hindered optimal performance and a few more that prevented desired functionality - including one that prevented the bot from starting conversations by itself. I have also updated the included Demo handler and added another handler to demonstrate the conversation starting abilities more clearly. This has been something that users have been whining for quite a while. Good that I got around to doing this finally

Microsoft has recently allowed bots on its network. It is even running a bot development competition called Invasion of the Robots. They are offering cool cash prizes for the best bots. This is probably a move to promote the new Live Messenger series.

Anyway, I intend on updating Blobsy to the functionality introduced/updated in Windows Live Messenger. Blobsy will be updated/rewritten to be compatible with MSN P13, the communications protocol used by Live Messenger. The rewrite will probably see day light as Blobsy 3 sometime next month.

   Hi Jaa,
   
   Congrats with your marriage. Jumped by as I'm, as so many others out there, puzzling with the blobsy 2 code and especially on finding out what ain't right about my server.
   
   Anyway, I'm wondering if you did already implement any fresh lines of code regarding the Windows Live protocol..
   
   Looking forward to testing the Blobsy 3 Release,
   
   Have a great honeymoon;-),
   
   best regards,

   Hi Roeland,
   
   Thanks
   
   As for checking out what might be preventing blobsy running correctly on your server, please do read up the forums at http://www.blobsy.org/. Most commonly it is the problem PHP binary being unavailable and PHP operating in safe mode. Make sure you have cURL extention enabled as well.
   
   Drop a line on the forum if trouble persists.

   Hi Jaa,
   
   The server exceeded bandwith limits. Can you tell me when you expect the site to be back?
