Hi! |
2 |
I'm Federico and I'm working for this year's Google Summer of Code on |
3 |
the euscan project with Corentin Chary. |
4 |
euscan is a tool to automatically scan upstream and find out if some |
5 |
packages in gentoo are outdated and should be bumped. |
6 |
|
7 |
We're working on a dashboard for maintainers where will be possible to |
8 |
receive a personalized report of packages. |
9 |
Currently on euscan (http://euscan.iksaif.net/) is possible to register |
10 |
and watch / unwatch packages. A simple dashboard is provided with a |
11 |
summary of the watched stuff (# of watched packages, # of outdated |
12 |
packages, etc...). |
13 |
|
14 |
We already received some suggestions and we implmented some of them, but |
15 |
we'd like to receive more detailed feedback about: |
16 |
|
17 |
- Mail newsletter: would you like to have it? which info would you like |
18 |
to receive specifically? A summary of the packages you're watching? When |
19 |
a scan is performed would you like an alert with all the new found |
20 |
version? Anything else? |
21 |
|
22 |
- RSS feed: would you like to have it? which info would you like? Only |
23 |
about new found versions of the packages you're watching? Or about |
24 |
portage updates too? |
25 |
|
26 |
- Settings/Preferences e.g.: Receive news only about stable versions, |
27 |
about unstable versions only if the version in gentoo is unstable, etc... |
28 |

Thank you for your help! |
