Hi. Oliver Propst oliver.pro...@gmail.com writes: Mozilla have developed the simple free webapp, asknot [1]. The idea is that the user is asked if he/she is interested in contributing in a particular area, the user can then either ask for more details or reject the idea and get another suggestion [2]. By asking the user upfront about areas of interest it complements the traditional approach to inform potential contributors to contributions opportunities . I think this something that the Debian could implement. Beside a domain what is needed is a design (and custom urls of course). I would be glad to volunteer to work on the content/urls. Anything the team are interested in working on? I'm not particularly active in the WWW team, but maybe I can share some bits, related to your suggestion. You may see in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=738713 a suggestion for implementing a Web variant of the how-can-i-help program. I think this is somehow related to what you're proposing. You may get more details about how-can-i-help at https://wiki.debian.org/how-can-i-help Hope this helps ;) Best regards, -- Olivier BERGER http://www-public.telecom-sudparis.eu/~berger_o/ - OpenPGP-Id: 2048R/5819D7E8 Ingenieur Recherche - Dept INF Institut Mines-Telecom, Telecom SudParis, Evry (France) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

You may get more details about how-can-i-help at https://wiki.debian.org/how-can-i-help Hey, Just as Christophe Siraut pointed out [1], the main selling point of how-can-i-help is its ability to show opportunities related to packages installed on your system. You can use it with with '--all' and '--old' options to get a complete list of all opportunities (even those from not installed packages) and then parse it. However, I don't think it's a good approach as you want to get a complete, unfiltered list of all opportunities, not a filtered one (so forcing a filtering program to skip filtering and output provided data directly is just redundant). You can get the whole list of 'opportunities' in gzipped JSON format from UDD [2] and then parse and filter it according to your needs (you should ask Lucas Nussbaum if it's fine to use UDD to feed production version of whatcanidofordebian.org). You may also like to take a look at [3] - maybe you can find something that you can use in your project there? Regards, T.
