# WhisperBot
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
WhisperBot is an XMPP bot meant to be used in a tightly knit collective for expressing messages anonymously. The bot was made in the context of creating a Code of Conduct for Varia as an attempt to escape the document-ification of the values Varia wishes to hold close. The bot can be sent a private message by a member which the bot will repeat in the group chat. The intention behind it is to provide a format to express concerns/doubts/conflicts outside of existing group dynamics.
