[pandorabots-general] looking for a general-purpose French-speaking AIML bot on pandorabots.com

[Philippe YONNET]

Hello,

I don't think most of the files written for Emilie can be useful for the
Pandorabots community. Emilie is a "commercial" sofware, it's used to guide
students on a french web site. So we wrote hundreds (even thousands)
specific categories for this use only.

Anyway, I'm writing a new set for a new project : the bot "Eva". It's a more
generic one, the first aiml files will be available before the end of this
year. The aim for this project is to serve as a tutorial about the building
of a chatterbot for french speaking people. This set will be perfect for the
pandorabots community.

I launched a site a few weeks ago :

http://www.pnambique.com

It gives information about AIML language (in french), and the building of
bot EVA is described step by step. (Eva is using Pandorabots + Vhost
Oddcast, like Emilie).

I want other french speaking people to launch projects in AIML, and perhaps,
build a  french speaking community  about it in the long run.

Philippe
