How can I use buildbot's IRC bot to connect to an IRC server that wants SSL connections?

I just submitted a small patch to BuildBot which will allow the IRC bot to connect to SSL-enabled servers. Should be included in the next release (0.7.12?).

If you want to apply it to your setup, it's a simple patch to backport.

You could fix the tunnel on the buildbots localhost with stunnel, for e.g.:

 stunnel -c -D5 -r dest.irc.server:port -d 127.0.0.1:6667

And then let buildbot connect to 127.0.0.1:6667
