+--- Probotic
+
+A IRC Bot that is able to recieve several commands and on a weekly
+(or daily, biweekly, monthly) basis will (privately?) declare an
+assignment for users to do.
+
+--- Speculations
+
+Internally this suggests that it must handle entries of these projects
+that could be preconceived or composed exactly for a given date (what
+ we're doing.)
+
+This may be done via a simplistic append-only database or a SQL-based
+database.
+
+--- Requirements
+
+The bot should support printing at a regular interval or at a given date.
+The bot should respect some commands, such as POST, for if someone wishes
+to post a project challenge.
+The bot should respect an administrator, such that he could POST, and
+REMOVE entered items.
+Command SEARCH, SINCE and LIST, for regexp searching, entries since a
+date (presumably a <from> <to> relationship), and a list all.
+
+The tooling behind the bot should be accessible to do the same sort of
+interfacing to recieve a given task at the running of a command (to avoid
+having to deal with unix mail, this could be done through a daily check
+in a crontab file.)
+
+--- Autism
+
+Formatting is BSD spc2, always bracketed (unless the block is upon another
+ keyword), overwrap functions and combinators.
+
+--- Example
+
+int /* what I meant by overwrap functions */
+main(int argc,
+     argv * argv)
+{
+  int * somevar = 0 + 1;
+  if (1 || /* what I meant by overwrap combinators */
+      *somevar)
+  { return 0; }
+  else /* switch, if, do/while/for, would not be nested within */
+  {
+    puts("fruakk");
+    return 1;
+  }
+}
