What do you need?

Originally logged by @ryanlerch on Gitlab:

The trio of Matrix Bots are in need of avatars. (not sure if this is the right location to request this, but seems like the best fit)
The current bots are:

  • zodbot -- used for Fedora focused commands, like cookies, and getting information about other Fedora Users etc. It's name is carried over from the IRC zodbot, and was named after General Zod

  • nonbot -- is a new bot on matrix -- it is the one that we use to spout notifications to various channels -- nagios alerts, github push alerts, etc all use nonbot. This was previously spouted by zodbot in IRC land, but now a seperate entity, so can be muted if people want. Nmaed after Non

  • meetbot -- the meeting running bot -- named after the software it used to be run with on IRC, but kept the same name as that is what everyone calls it.

The upstream ticket to track this is https://github.com/fedora-infra/matrix-bots/issues/24

Since zod is mostly used for cookies, why not focus on that for the logo?

@niknikovsky Just repeating my comment here: I have advised you multiple times now that you aren't to start new tickets until we have your assigned two finished and closed. Because providing design feedback is a time-intensive process, starting new work before finishing the old creates a bottleneck for the maintainers. Thanks!

Had some time in between tickets where I wanted to jot some ideas down in case anyone was able to use them as a launching pad.

I'm enjoying to see the evolution of this discussion! I will say, zodbot specifically appeals to some aged nerd culture… it could be cute to play into that.

I was going to also mention, we also have our Release Party bot account and a Moderation bot account. The Release Party bot account is a bit of a gatekeeper; it invites everyone who registers for the Release Party to the correct Matrix room closer to the party. The Moderation bot is not yet fully rolled out, but this will be a Fedora-hosted bot that creates the various protections and synchronizes Matrix room bans across many Fedora Matrix rooms. This is part of the protections we are putting into place with our use of Matrix in defense against CSAM attacks.
