Feature changed by: Pascal Bleser (pbleser) Feature #313229, revision 3 Title: Create infrastructure to recognize user contributions openSUSE Infrastructure: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Robert Schweikert (rjschwei) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: One of the requirements of becoming a member is for the applicant to show contributions to the project. These contributions then need to get verified by the membership committee. This verification today is tedious, and we would like to have a system that makes it easy to verify contributions across the various areas of the project. In addition we would like to use the same mechanism to enable recognition of project contributions by existing members. The idea is to automatically collect data such as - submit requests to the project, possibly listed by project - packages maintained (possibly not inherited maintainership) - forum posts - ML participation - bugs filed and/or fixed - wiki edits Some general ideas can be found in this message: http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-project/2012-01/msg00390.html Discussion: #1: Jean-Daniel Dodin (jdd) (2012-02-16 18:26:47) Extremely desirable, but difficult to acheive. Worth a significant effort. + #2: Pascal Bleser (pbleser) (2012-02-18 20:22:59) + And never mind how much horrible glue code is necessary. + One idea would be to implement a library in a scripting language - a + few other projects are doing that. e.g. a Perl "openSUSE.org" module. + From there on, the sky is the limit (would suggest using Perl as it + already has tons and tons of (packaged) modules that provide a lot of + integration facilities, and we will definitely need quite a few hacks + such as HTML scraping). -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/313229
