Public Relays are Available for useing
this is the bot that simply invites all other bots to its privgroup

this Relay should work with any version or even other bots like vhabot as it only invites
as normal you bots will only read chat from bots you have given member+ access to
dont want your org chat relayed for others to read (usually only viewed by bot hosts who can see all chat in the privgroup)?
make sure u useing the relay module attached
the module attachment has new features (soon to be official)
it can relay buddy and PG info so !online works even if diferent hosts for org bot
messages can be encripted useing a key set in your settings and will make chat unreadable with out key
the encryption parts require mhash and mcrypt for php

you can add a Bot to the relay so it gets invited by useing !addbot <name>
this command it restricted to use by members of same org as the bot or done by bot it self (like logging on bot ur self)
this is to prevent abuse, especially with the soon to be added removal command

Bots:
RK1 - Botcoop
RK2 - Bebotrelay
RK3 - Bebotrelay

AOC - i will prob setup this on some servers (its prob needed more for AoC but for same reason its needed more i will be limited)
1 limit is my account is US, so EU shouldnt exept it (unless some 1 wants to pay the monthly fee lol)

The module below is the Standard Relay.php you get with 0.6.2 with
Relaying of Buddies for !online (soon to be official)
Encryption for Privacy of chat (soon to be official)
a Simple change to output Announcements made from the Relay Bot e.g. downtime

Let me reaffirm Temar's security warning:
If you do not encrypt your relay, everyone in the relay will potentially be able to read your chat. Accepting input from other bots only requires one easy change.

So better never use this public relay without encryption.

The warning doesn't count if you host your own relay bot, where you control the access list.
