EPrints hack day
Event Information
Description
EPrints - help us get to the next level!
- resolve open pull requests (https://github.com/eprints/eprints/pulls)
- resolve known bugs (https://github.com/eprints/eprints/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3Abug)
- close as many other Issues from GitHub as possible (https://github.com/eprints/eprints/issues)
- flag/tag/milestone remaining Issues
- write (better) documentation for anything we resolve
- ??? (you tell us!)
The skills you would need are:
- EPrints knowledge
- some Git knowledge (but we can help with this)
- ability to consume caffeine
- ???
If it's not practical to get to Southampton, I hope you would still be involved - maybe using https://gitter.im/eprints/eprints as a communication channel.
We will be concentrating on the EPrints core (rather than Bazaar packages) and I think that we could get close to the next release with this work - a positive/definite outcome, rather than a 'some progress was made on some things' outcome.
Whatever your level of EPrints geekery, come along and help us help us!
