Deepti Reddy
Associate Professor in Computer Engineering department in SIES Graduate School of Technology, University of Mumbai, India.
The areas of interest are- Intelligent Tutoring System, Expert Systems, Semantic web, Technology enabled learning system for developing thinking skills.
Intro to FOSS Project Anatomy (Activity)
Basic aspects of FOSS project
Community of FOSS development-The position of person depends on the contribution to the projects- starts as user of the application, identify small changes that may lead to larger changes and responsible for larger portion of the project.
Leadership-Benevolent Dictator takes decision usually in collaboration with major developers.
Forking- making changes to the copy of the existing project or code.
Communication- IRC, wikis, mailing lists, bug trackers.
Roadmaps- future of the projects, in form of enhancements or bugs fixed.
Releases- The developed project with code and documentation.
Repository- The place where software packages are saved for distribution, e.g. Launchpad, SourceForge, GitHub
Packaging- Packaging a project for distribution in zip or binary format.
Upstream/downstream- upstream is main project and downstream is copy of code for changes.
Version control- track of various versions of project
Trackers- bug report
Sugar Lab Project
Contribution Learning software for children, which consists of collection of tool for learners to explore, discover, create and reflect through collaboration. Contributors are- Teachers, content writers, People person, developer, designer, translator. Communication is through wiki, email, IRC. Community- the goals in terms of education, technical and community clearly stated. Roadmap- three phases- identifying goals, building project and iteration.
Tracker- The bugs can be submitted in github.com in issues tab, click on new issue. types/categories of tickets listed on this page as well as the information available for each ticket.
Types of tickets listed are- defect, enhancement, task Information available for each ticket are- ticket number, bug details, status, owner, type, priority, and milestone.
Repository- date of last commit is May 16, 2017
Release cycle- The roadmap is updated at the beginning of each release cycle.
SAHANA Foundation- Open Source Disaster Management Software
Provides platform for rapidly deploying information management system for disaster management.
One can contribute as a
1. Developer- Contribute to Sahana by closing tickets, updated wiki docs, writing tests and helping others on the mailing list.
2. Testers- manual testing and documenting test cases
3. Designer- to improve the look and feel of the site.
How the Sahana project structure different than Sugar lab? Sugarlab focus is more on activities to support learning and Sahana is more towards application so the contribution towards sahana is more technical than Sugarlab.
Tracker The tickets in Sahana are categorized under various titles which is not the same in Sugarlab.
Types/categories of tickets- defuct/bug, documentation, enhancement, task, minor.
Information available for each ticket- ticket number, summary, component, version, priority, type, owner, status, created.
Part B- FOSS Field Trip (Activity)
Github Educational applications Number of repositories in education category-13397 Nodejs- Commit has list of updates date wise made by users.
humanitarian applications Number of repositories – 301 Last update- April 22, 2017
Disaster management No of projects- 152
Openhub
Number of educational project-3470 KDE education code is located in Github
Information about project- Name of the project, overview, lines of code, contributors, date of last commit, review, option to compare projects.
Number of humanitarian projects- 40 Activity not available is shown for projects that do not have recent analysis because of problems with their code locations or other problems blocking Open Hub from collecting and analyzing code will show the Not Available icon.
Last commit for OpenMRS- April 2017, last 2 months ago
Advantages of Openhub over Github Openhub gives more summarized overview of a project in the search list, so no need to open the project to get more details. It also provides option to compare and analyze the projects. Information provided is more useful to a developer.
