I took a look at the various projects and the ToDo list, the projectthat interested me Pandora, although I would have to brush up on my python ;).
I could use help there, since I am pretty much stuck in the thesis/work realm ;). To get started, you'd need some experience with Python and the Django web framework (which is fairly easy to learn). There are still many things that need to be done. From the top of my head, the most urgent things:
- Get up a demo of the current development snapshot. - Store all Changelog entries for one changelog together in one record. Now there is a separate table with all the individual entries, which is slow ;). - Add RSS feeds. - Use a different non-python metadata parser. Maybe the yum C metadata parser can be used or reused (IIRC it can't be used as-is, because we're interested in all package versions for Pandora, not just the latest).
The first three should all be relatively easy to do. If you'd like to work on one or more of these items, let us know. diffs against the tree are welcome on this list (so that they don't get lost, and can get peer-review).
Take care, Daniel
