Re: [orca-list] Who else is looking to contribute?



Well I can first suggest for everyone to sign up to
github and fork https://github.com/GNOME/orca
gitorious  and fork  https://gitorious.org/sonarlinux/orca-sonar

I plan on spending at least one day a week for the next months, working on this.

First steps will be to help improve documentation and improve user scripting and testing and then to create code that is outside the main core code that is being updated.

Hi Mike,
I will be keenly waiting for this.
Basically there are very strong reasons for me to have this as early as possible.
One of the state governments in India have announced some support for Orca and I would be asked to lead the development, given that I am both a blind programmer and a developer in Python language. The getting started and way ahead are just 2 points I have to understand now.
happy hacking.

Good points.
I am working on creating a new script for an app not covered yet and will
be documenting that.

I will work on some beginners docs, I found these
docs/doc-set/architecture.sgml pretty good, I will be making some tutorials
for beginners.

  Hi,
For ages I have been looking for a way to start contributing.
There is a start I make by looking into the code.
I am a Python programmer myself and would find it very easy if I get the
entire big picture and what are the starting points.
Would be for example interested to write good Orca scripts for impress and
for other apps.
If some one can post a comprehensieve blog or a wiki for this thing, I
think it will be a great starting resource for advanced Python programmers
like your's truely.
Happy hacking.
Krishnakant.

Hi all orca users and devs,
am I the only one here who is trying to contribute? Is there anyone else on
this list who has had contributions ignored?
I have looked at the commit log and it seems to be dominated by only very
few people,
lets start a discussion on how to get more people committing.
