Sat, 26 Feb 2011 21:27:49 +0000 Brian Neal Adding the sg101 IRC bot code to SVN. This code is pretty rough and needs love, but it gets the job done (one of my first Python apps). This fixes #150.

Sat, 05 Feb 2011 21:46:52 +0000 Brian Neal Fix a bug where you'd get an error when trying to delete a forum thread (topic does not exist).

Reworked the code a bit and explicitly delete the posts first. I also added a sync() call on the parent forum since post counts were not getting adjusted.
