Hello Sugar Devs, My name is Michal Poczwardowski, 23, Poland. I am interested in taking part in this year's Google Summer of Code. In short, I was GSoC student in 2011 and 2012 (for Tcl/Tk and BlueZ). More details on the website[1]. Regarding this particular idea - I'm familiar with Python and IRC protocol.
I'm a regular IRC user and have few new ideas regarding IRC Activity. As sugar channels reside at freenode, It would be nice to have NickServ support build-in. Also, when ordinary IRC users use screen with console client, It would be great to have awaylog that displays our hilights even when we are not present. This feature could be turn on only for registered nicks and some webservice + irclogs will be involved. For example: when user joins channel, IRC Activity could show all hilights since user's last visit, of course with reasonable time/messages limit. I've found library[2] that could be used to replace deprecated Urk. Also implementing notifications and improving performance will be my priority. I will be grateful if you could give me some feedback to ideas provided. Thanks, Michal [1] http://dmpgsoc.azalayah.net/ [2] http://sourceforge.net/projects/python-irclib/files/ dmp@freenode _______________________________________________ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
