New bots!

New bots are available on the Jabber network. You have to use a Jabber compatible client: list of clients
I recommend you Pidgin because it can connect to several networks (Yahoo, AIM, MSN, IRC etc.). To add the bots listed below add them by selecting "XMPP" for the protocol.

Here is the new bots list:

• QuizMaster@jabber.org : You have 20 seconds to answer questions. Try to be in the top 5 high scores! (this bot is the same as the MSN version: quizmasterbot@hotmail.com)
  
• MathTeacher@jabber.org : MathTeacher bot is designed to help kids (and adults ) practicing mental calculation.
  
• ProfDeMath@jabber.org : MathTeacher in French (version française)
  

Please report any bug, spelling mistakes, or any other problems.

Here is the procedure to use these bots with Pidgin:

• Install Pidgin and launch it
  
• The first time you launch pidgin you are asked to configure an IM account:
  

Click on the "Add" button.

• Click on the "Protocol" list (see the number of supported protocols? later you could add your Yahoo messenger, AIM, MSN etc. accounts!) and select "XMPP" (= Jabber)
  
• Choose a screen name, type "jabber.org" for the domain (there are other servers available but this one is the official one), and type your password. Click on "Register"
  

• You are prompted to register you account:
  

Click on "Register".

• Once your account is registered and you are connected, you can add the bots: Click on the "Buddies" menu then on "Add buddy". Type the bot's address in "Screen name" and click on "Add":
  

• You can now play with the bot!
