ShakespeareBot creator Elizabeth Perreau has issued a new AIML interpreter called Program-O. Written in PHP with MySQL, O is an open source AIML Interpreter that allows users to host a chatbot online.

Having been frustrated by the limitations of Program E, which is no longer actively supported, Perreau wrote Program-O to make adding new AIML tags and extensions easy. She has implemented the custom Pandorabots tags <eval> and <learn> for client based bot training.

Released on March 1, 2009, Program-O is now available under the GNU General Public License on SourceForge.
