Channel Management Feature

[purduekenny]

Problem

When attempting to communicate the purpose of channels in a message, only one user is able to maintain the list as it evolves. This causes either an undue burden or an outdated channel list depending on the motivation of the original poster.

Solution

Develop a module that keeps track of channel names and their respective descriptions and category. The module will then have the ability to post to a channel, designated by a settings command, the current channel mapping.

Questions

• Can the bot collect the current existing categories and channels and populate the list of categories and channels when first added to a server?
