Slack <-> IRC bridge

Hi,

I have set up a bridge between
the Slack #public channel and the #squeak IRC channel on Freenode.
I hope this is appreciated. If you want, I can mirror #general instead :)
I think this makes the communication that is more actively happening on
slack a little bit more available to the general public.

Note that this took two integration hooks on slack and we have only
five. Since the jenkins integration takes also one and an unconfigured
service (probably accidental?) of Ben Coman the forth, we only have one
left. If this is a problem, I'll cut down on that and disable the bridge :)

Best

nice, though, could you maybe pick a shorter nickname for the bot?
it takes up about half the space in an 80 column terminal:
(15:25:48) squeak-slackbot:#squeak: <bert>: basically you want  
                                    myobject-looklike-otherobject, so you get  
                                    myobject's looklike-dot tile and drop a  
                                    reference to otherobject into it (e.g. from
                                    otherobject's orange halo handle)  
with a short name it would look better:
(15:25:48) sqb:#squeak: <bert>: basically you want    
                        myobject-looklike-otherobject, so you get myobject's    
                        looklike-dot tile and drop a reference to otherobject  
                        into it (e.g. from otherobject's orange halo handle)

greetings, martin.

this is the normal #squeak channel on Freenode IRC.
Freenode.net has a nice introduction and webchat.freenote.net
helps, too :)
