Hello everyone, I'm Ravi Kumar, an undergrad Computer Science and Engineering student based in Bangalore. I'm familiar with Source code management with git and comfortable with Python, Ruby and C. I'm familiar with django and the MVC approach, although I haven't made any real contributions to open-source projects. So this is all the more exciting to me. I see GSoC as a very good opportunity to learn and also give something back to the community.
I was going through the Ideas page and was interested in porting Hyperkitty and Postorius on to python 3.x and I had a bunch of questions.
- Are there any constraints the community places on the strategy that is to be adopted to port the apps or is are the strategies up to the person submitting the proposal?
- What versions of django should the ports be compatible across?
- How reliable and thorough are the unit tests that are in place?
- Should the ports be polyglots supporting Python 2.6-3.x or just support python 3.3? Since mailman plans to support only Python 3.x in the future?
Thanks, Ravi Kumar
