[ANN] Snuik v0.2 released -- a Snuiky IRC robot in Guile Goblins.

Hi!

It's amazing, a second release of Snuik, and this time it is using
Goblins!  The Git archive comes with a couple of small Goblins examples
such as a timer, a source and a sink.  Hopefully, this Goblins version
makes Snuik a lot more fun to hack on.  Currently, Snuik lives on
libera.chat in the channels #bootstrappable, #dezyne, #guix-risc-v,
#lilypond, and #tropin.

The unreleased version 0.1 introduced an `alive' handler that should
increase the availability of snuik without manual assistance.

About

  Snuik is a snuiky, sneek-like IRC robot in Guile Goblins.  It has some
  basic functionality you know from sneek such as identify, info, seen,
  later tell, basic greetings, and what.  It's also used as a playground
  for the actor-model style programming, some GOOPS/record hacking,
  serialization/unserialization, etc.
