12 xib includes its own version of the old irclib.py <http://python-irclib.sourceforge.net/> because this library doesn't correctly handle the different character encodings, I'm sorry about it but I don't have time to contribute to the upstream version right now, I don't know if it still has developers anyway

22 To start xib bots just execute start_bots_from_xml_config.py, this script will search the *current* directory for a file named "config.xml" which must have the same schema as "example_config.xml".
