[Twisted-Python] GSOC 2013 Project Idea for Twisted Matrix

Good Evening Twisted Matrix is a great module for Networking and I would like to work with this project. I want to propose Twisted a new Idea of Promoting the project to Porting to Python 3 (with backward compatibility). Porting benefits by grabbing the Python 3 users and would prepare the Twisted for the Future. P.S. : I am not sure if this project idea is suitable for Google Summer of Code. *Regards * *Chitrank Dixit * *IIPS-DAVV * *MCA * *trackleech.blogspot.in*

Helping the Python 3 porting effort sounds like a GSoC project to me :) You might not finish it (there's a lot of work, and some of the problems are very tricky), but it's definitely an area I think deserves some full-time attention. Are you familiar with the Twisted contribution process? It is my understanding that we ask GSoC students to find and fix a single, easy (usually "easy" literally means minutes of actual work, once your system is set up for Twisted development) to qualify, so that they're already familiar with what they'd need to do. cheers lvh

Thanks Exarkun for making me aware of the GSOC process of twisted. I have made my project proposal and looking forward for further suggestions from the mentor.

Thanks Laurens I know the Twisted Matrix Module at good Extend and would definitely contribute to the Twisted development. I have read the Twisted GSOC where it is required to submit atleast one patch. I have set up my development environment for Twisted Matrix and Working on Twisted. *Regards * *Chitrank Dixit * *IIPS-DAVV * *MCA * *trackleech.blogspot.in* On Sat, Apr 20, 2013 at 3:01 PM, Laurens Van Houtven <_@lvh.io> wrote:

Good Morning Hello Lauren and exarkun As per the page you have suggested to me http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/wiki/GSoC2013 I have progressed to step 3 and submitted some of the patches that are under review process. I have submitted some of the patches http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/6440 http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/6441 http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/6438 but these patches have Low or somewhat Normal priority and these are tagged "easy" not "easy gsoc" or "documentation gsoc". So Is it okay for me to apply for the Google Summer of Code. Meanwhile I am getting familiar with the Twisted Development Process. Using one of the Source provided at the Twisted Website that is Orielly Twisted Network Programming Essentials. So would it be alright ?. Should I keep on submitting such patches or try for some more higher priority patches ? Should I give my project proposal to the Mentor ? Please let me know *Regards * *Chitrank Dixit * *IIPS-DAVV * *MCA * *trackleech.blogspot.in*

The 'gsoc' keyword there is actually for reviewers, to give priority to them. (And it is incoistently applied.)
Should I keep on submitting such patches or try for some more higher priority patches ?
The priority is mostly meaningless, and won't affect whether you get selected. Tom

I have submitted some of the patches [1]http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/6440 [2]http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/6441 [3]http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/6438 Thank you for your submissions! A few notes: 1) To avoid duplication of work, avoid tickets that have recently been assigned to someone else. That is, the tickets are in status "assigned" and the "owner" is set. (If the ticket has been assigned for a long time with no activity, it may be appropriate to ask the owner if they're still working on it.) 2) When submitting your patch, be sure to place the ticket in "review" state. Without this, reviewers will not notice it is ready for review. This is described in step 8 of Submitting a Patch here: [4]http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/wiki/TwistedDevelopment#Submitti ngaPatch Should I give my project proposal to the Mentor ? Please continue to send ideas for projects to [5]twisted-gsoc@twistedmatrix.com, it will be received by all us mentors.

Thanks Kevin for letting me know about the submitted patches you are also a Mentor on Twisted. Does my Idea of Porting would work for this year's GSOC under Twisted. Please let me know this I have made a proposal over this Idea. So should I submit the Proposal or try to fix more bugs , or I can fix bugs later as well. *Regards * *Chitrank Dixit * *IIPS-DAVV * *MCA * *trackleech.blogspot.in* On Thu, Apr 25, 2013 at 2:59 AM, Kevin Turner <keturn@keturn.net> wrote:
