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



I will be updating https://github.com/h4ck3rm1k3/orca-sonar for now.
I have also my original patchs for orca here which were ignored and are now out of date;
https://github.com/h4ck3rm1k3/orca/ with the branch for example
https://github.com/h4ck3rm1k3/orca/tree/refactor

Right now I am working on making test code for the event frame standalone.
To git gitorious org:sonarlinux/h4ck3rm1k3s-orca-sonar.git
 * [new branch]      event_manager_driver -> event_manager_driver

this is experimental code, I hope to make standalone test frames for major modules.

I would want more dtails on this.
Firstly, which repo will be the one you will be updating, and how do you plan to work on the documentation for scripting and other stuff?
Happy hakcing.

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.
