Web Tools for Custom Debian Distributions
Mentor: AndreasTille
Summary: Development of web tools to display and coordinate work on Custom Debian Distributions
Required skills:
- Python
- perhaps some PHP
Description: The Debian-Med CDD has developed a set of tools that might be use as sentinel to observe the status of the development. These tools show the content of the tasks packages as well as prospective packages which might fit into the task. Moreover there is an overview about the status of DDTP translations for packages relevant for a task. These pages are currently in alpha status because there are several features missing and the main feature to factorize these tools to work for all other CDDs has to be finished. So in principle these pages show in which direction to move to get a really useful toolset for all CDDs. (And by the way because the name Custom Debian Distribution is terribly bad choosen and is continuosely missunderstood: CDD is the name for completely internal projects in Debian that try to customise Debian for a certain purpose. You can read more about this in a paper about CDD.)
