Hi all, Over the last few weekends we've been doing some spring-cleaning to our infrastructure. You may have noticed that we've killed off projects.kde.org, and we have new scripts that generate our kde_projects.xml without having to depend on ChiliProject now. We're also planning to deprecate kde_projects.xml itself, and to that effect we've started setting up a JSON/REST API at https://apps.kde.org/api/v1/.
The same infrastructure that is used to generate data for our API and the XML file can be used to generate a HTML website with landing pages for our applications, and this is something we intend to do in the coming months as a replacement for the outdated kde.org/applications site. To achieve that, however, we're going to need some help from you. Our project metadata is currently held in the sysadmin/repo-metadata repository. We currently hold data about the project name, repository and a one-line description of each project. We would like maintainers and anyone who can help to provide us with three things for every project - a *description.md* file with a bigger description of each project that appears on the website, and for applications with a GUI, a *screenshot.png* file with a screenshot of the app and two icons (a 256 * 256 px icon.png and a 512 * 512px icon_2x.png). Of course, only sysadmins have write access to sysadmin repos; not everyone can upload the files themselves. You can get in touch with the sysadmins over e-mail, use Phabricator or simply co-ordinate with your module maintainer who can then send us the files in batches. Volunteers and anyone willing to lend a hand with the process are most welcome :-) Thanks, Boudhayan Gupta _______________________________________________ kde-community mailing list kde-community@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-community
