I woud like to join your Dabo team. This would my first open source involvement. I'm not
what you'd call a "seasoned" python developer however, I have been developing
in other languages for +35 years. Python is a language I felt in love with about 10 years
ago but for whatever reason; I have never been able to use it professionally. I work for
a county government and we are a Microsoft shop.
I have liked the concept of your application framework and did play with Dabo a
few years ago just prove the concept(s). I found it more than interesting and
have pointed in its direction about a dozen persons.
I would like to help in porting Dabo to python 3 and hopefully also help expand
its capabilities.
That would be great!
First thing I would recommend is to join the dabo-dev email list
(https://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/dabo-dev). It's free, and anyone
involved in the development side of Dabo subscribes. We discuss everything
there so that a) people know what is under development and b) it is more likely
that someone may be able to help. I've cc'd the list on this reply.
The 'dabo3' branch is fully Python 3, but some of the interactions between Dabo
and wxPython are just not stable. I haven't had the time to investigate them
very deeply. So what I'd recommend is to download Dabo, switch to the 'dabo3'
branch, and try running either the DaboDemo code or some of the design tools in
the ide directory. Then when something either crashes or doesn't work, you can
start digging into the code to figure out why. And, of course, if you have any
questions (you will!), post them to the dabo-dev list.
