#Is anyone planning on mentioning this at some community forum? Or are we disregarding the entirety of the bot policy for this?

My response:
#No. I'm not familiar with the bug reporting process, and have been extremely busy today, so don't have the time to do bring myself up to speed with it. I was going to do so tomorrow, after I've handed the draft of my dissertation in.
#Shirik says that the bot only scans one or two ports so does not disrupt another network. However, you are right insofar as nobody has explicitly asked the toolserver admins.
#Given the urgency of the situation with respect to the user that is vandalising and taking up a lot of our time, this was intended to be a quick stop-gap measure. It's my hope that this bot is quickly made redundant by a fix to the torblock extension, thus making extended community discussion redundant.
