Splotch it's offensive but fun.
Azile might run under Executor (the forked one at GitHub).

#5Except it WAS intended as a chatbot... as a tool "for research into human-machine conversation and the important cognitive processes of interpretation and misinterpretation".
It's like saying the guy who invented the screwdriver didn't invent it because he was REALLY just trying to build a cabinet. The reason a tool was invented does not mean the tool isn't what the tool is.

#6Jeff is a HN user and his connection to ELIZA is pretty interesting. Many of the ELIZA chat bot clones were based on a version he wrote as a kid, that was published.
He and a group of researchers put effort into digging up the history of original implementation.
Interesting person!

POSIWID.

I think you misunderstand arxiv, blogging, and research papers.
(I've used/done extensively the three mentioned things before, including blogging in a research context)
arxiv is a preprint server. Blog posts can, sometimes, play the same role as research preprints. Research papers are fundamentally about having a _structured conversation_ about a topic.
This paper is arxiv at its best.
