IRC Auth is done in plaintext right now. Need to figure out a way to do it more securely that doesn't require saving password as plaintext in the config.

Current logging method is hacky and uses a flat file.

Switching to sqlite for many reasons, mostly to support planned features.

Bot errors if any config variables are missing or incorrect. Need to add config verification and prompt for missing/incorrect ones.

Config is currently included in main bot program. Move to external file.

Need to add code to detect ident of bot so if any nick with that ident sends quit command, bot will quit.

Current method of parsing username and message does not work with IPv6 due to splitting based on ':' Need to rework the parsing so this doesn't happen.
