[opensuse-project] [GSoC] Phonegap application for openSUSE News/ Planet
by Visitha Baddegama 09 May '13

09 May '13

Hi All, As GSoC project for openSUSE News/ Planet, I am going to implement a Phonegap application. Therefore we don't need to limit for Android, we can use this application in lot of popular mobile platforms like iOS, Android, Wndows Mobile and BlackBerry etc. I discussed thoroughly with mentor Manu and submitted a proposal for this Phonegap application. And I created an openFATE request which describes my implementation plan again. https://features.opensuse.org/315044 I already have implemented crucial language changing functionality as version 1 of my app and have attached the apk file together with the above request. Currently that demo supports languages like English, French, Japan and Hungarian. Now I am adding more languages as in planet.oo. First there will be a list with brief descriptions of each news items of selected language. When you click on an item, detail view of selected news item will be displayed. Here I used JQuery mobile and a custom CSS file. Therefore I could give nice different appearance together with JQuery mobile. Please give your suggestions and feedbacks about this request and its features and give a vote if it is useful for openSUSE. Thanks in Advance..!! -- Visitha Warna Baddegama Undergraduate Department of Computer Science and Engineering University of Moratuwa Sri Lanka -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] OSEM improvement as gsoc
by Stella Rouzi (differentreality) 04 May '13

04 May '13

Hi all, being involved with oSC13 and seeing Matt's effort to create OSEM I thought it would be a great opportunity to help out a bit more actively. I am personally motivated to help in the implementation of such application, as I often organize FOSS events and conferences. Moreover I think it is a great effort, what Matt started, and this platform will be widely useful to be used by FOSS communities for their event planning. So I have submitted a proposal to gsoc for osem improvements & enhancements. https://google-melange.appspot.com/gsoc/proposal/review/google/gsoc2013/dif… Stella -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] My introduction and GSoC proposal
by Gergely Csordás 02 May '13

02 May '13

Hello Everyone! I am Gergely Csordás, a student at the University of Miskolc in Hungary. It is a smaller one, but with one of the oldest history and richest in customs in my country. I met with computers when I was a small child, maybe about six and my father introduced it to me where he worked at that time and I immediately fell in love with building, modifying computers and not just the hardware, but researching and somewhat try to modify the software as well. But that was nearly one and a half decade later, when I met with Linux and learned programming on some Basic languages. (Sorry for the pun.) Throughout the years as I have learned some languages and tried to learn some others, I took more adventures to the Linux world too. But unfortunately only the last trial (which was about five years ago) was so successful, that made me remain at the world of Linux. Actually I was always at the passive side of the community, but one of my friends persuaded me to be take a more active part, because it is fun and somehow these were my thoughts as well, so we made this proposal, which is writing a thought, the XMPP or Jabber destination, into C code. As I already administrating several Linux servers, it is essential for me to know what is happening and partly that was why I selected syslog-ng as my logging service on "my" computers. I have some machines that are critical for me and I want to get its most critical statuses to my attention as fast as possible without opening any new windows or running any checks by hand. I know that not just me, but nearly all IT professionals are somewhat a lazy guy and this project is for ourselves and getting the log messages into a faster, but good use, until someone tries this project in a newer way, for example as a chat program. ;) Why I would like to participate in this program? Maybe it is the best question for anyone who wants to participate, but I think it is not really true for me. I applied, because I am a student, a system administrator and I have a job at the same time, but I wanted to make my mostly free time of the year as useful as the other and to experience something truly different what I usually do and what could be a challenge for me. Thank you for taking the time reading my e-mail and do not hesitate to share your thoughts. Kind regards, Gergely -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] Markmail is finally indexing some of the opensuse lists
by Greg Freemyer 01 May '13

01 May '13

All, I asked MarkMail to setup a portal to allow search opensuse mailing lists a couple years ago. They contacted Henne eventually but nothing seemed to come of it. By chance I just checked to see if they ever had setup the portal and low and behold they have. They claim to be indexing 13 lists, but the oldest messages are only from Jan of this year. http://opensuse.markmail.org This view is better from my perspective because it shows the most popular lists indexed on the left. http://opensuse.markmail.org/search/?q= I hope they are still in the setup phase and both more lists and older messages will get added over time. fyi: I'm happy to see I didn't make their list of top talkers. Hopefully I will stay off that list! Greg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org
