Should DMs to bot in Slack not need the bots name?

Currently with the new Slack adapter you still need to use the bots name in a DM for it to respond.

Should the adapter be updated so DMs do not need the bots name?

So in the slackbot channel you would just get responses without having to mention mmbot first?

I haven't tried that with the new adapter. That was the original reason for the Slack commands implementation. If it works then I'm all for it

Not the slackbot channel, the mmbot channel.

Hmmmm. Looks like I need to update my build ;)

Yeah, we used to that in HipChat I think.
