Howdy, I would like to attack: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=596864, "deprecater / version freshness checker".
I chose this bug because it is fairly straight forward and I am trying to learn python, I am one of those do to learn people :). So if you have time and would be kind enough to answer a question or two I will be appreciative. Questions, questions: Q: Which libraries should I use for downloading/xml parsing. GIO? I didn't see any bindings for the g_markup_* calls Q: What part(s) of the code base should be of most interest to me? I have had a look already, mostly had a look at the prefs stuff and the initializing of the application. Q: How do I do this, e.g. design-wise I really don't have the experience as to how this "should be" implemented. I assume create an object to handle the version check, use async callback for a download, and show a dialog if needed. Q: opt-out: just use a PreferenceDialog.addTogglePreference () I assume, which section do I place the options in. : also I assume there will be a checkbox on the dialog to disable this if it does display : are these .add calls automatically persistent between pitivi sessions? Any response is welcome, if you can provide assessment of my question asking skills/ asking the rightquestions etc. that would be appreciated too :) /Stephen ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Pitivi-pitivi mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/pitivi-pitivi
