Toolserver:User:Alex brollo

Hi all. I'm working into it.source, and I'm the driver of a multi-purpouse very busy python bot.

I'm not a programmer, I'm only a rather aged user who learnt FORTRAN as first language when PC where just at their beginnging, then passing DOS, Basic, Dbase3 and dBase4, a little bit of Assembler, then stopping for years in the Windows, finally discovering  Python; in recent years I joined wiki projects and I'm a passionate source user by now. I have vague notions of php and js too, and some ideas about html, xml, css.

My bot looks at RecentChanges and "does things". The strangest thing it is doing now is to parse standard templates and to transform parameters into "variables" that can be accessed by users and templates (something like a mini-SemanticWiki). I.e. a template can list all "variables" of a book into any format, and can too list any "variable" of the author.

Could this bot be run from toolserver? This is the second reason suggesting to join toolserver. I realize that much study, many tests and innumerable mistakes are needed to learn. By now I'm very ignorant and confused about the whole stuff. :-(

The first reason it that there's a it.source bot regularly running from toolserver, but there's an user only that has a toolserver account to drive it; it's much better that it could be driven from another user too. :-)
