* '''Do you have any past involvement with the Fedora project or another open source project as a contributor?''' | |||

==Fedora Gooey Karma - GUI for CLI tool== | |||
I really like the idea of Karma system for bug fixes. I think, lot of people are not using it because they don't know about the CLI tool or it's not so "handy" for them. This GUI tool should be the best solution to get people involved in this process. | |||
This tool should make adding karma and testing easier. Timothy Flink wrote some lines about the tool on his [http://tirfa.com/gooey-karma.html blog]. Then mkrizek created some [https://github.com/mkrizek/fedora-gooey-karma mockups with PySide]. I would like to continue on this work and discuss it regularly with tflink, mkrizek and jskladan (as a new mentor). | |||
And what's my plan? It's pretty the same as Tim wrote on his blog. | |||
* List of installed/available packages from testing repositories | |||
* If there are some Test Cases - show them for easier testing | |||
* Comments of course | |||
* Dependency tree - that would be great to have - you never know what breaks the thing :) | |||
* Package description from yum | |||
* Maybe option to download source RPM or patch directly would be great! | |||
Tim has perfect picture of GUI and I hope I can show link to it from here. [http://tflink.fedorapeople.org/proposals/fedora_gooey_karma/gooey_karma_simple_mockup-small.png Image of Gooey Karma interface] | |||
And why choose me over other participants? I don't think I am the best of the best but I know how it's going in Fedora and Red Hat. Josef Skladanka (mentor) is working in Brno office too, so the discussions could be in real life and not only via IRC/Jabber. :) | |||

Fedora Gooey Karma - GUI for CLI tool
I really like the idea of Karma system for bug fixes. I think, lot of people are not using it because they don't know about the CLI tool or it's not so "handy" for them. This GUI tool should be the best solution to get people involved in this process.
This tool should make adding karma and testing easier. Timothy Flink wrote some lines about the tool on his blog. Then mkrizek created some mockups with PySide. I would like to continue on this work and discuss it regularly with tflink, mkrizek and jskladan (as a new mentor).
And what's my plan? It's pretty the same as Tim wrote on his blog.
- List of installed/available packages from testing repositories
- If there are some Test Cases - show them for easier testing
- Comments of course
- Dependency tree - that would be great to have - you never know what breaks the thing :)
- Package description from yum
- Maybe option to download source RPM or patch directly would be great!
