Yes, this would be great. If you are interested It could also be a good idea to do a Replicant workshop around a conference. Me and Paul already tried to do Replicant workshops in French conferences in order to get more Replicant developers, but unfortunately there wasn't enough interest at the time. > > I also met Jeremy Rand some weeks ago and during our discussion on > > Replicant we found out that Java developers knowing how to write > > Android applications will probably be very badly needed for several > > tasks: > > (....) > > I'm happy to say that when it comes to Java and high-level app > programming, the matter is completely different: I'm 100% sure I can > help in any of the tasks you mentioned. > I'm also much more likely to be efficient on high-level projects, so I > totally put myself at disposal for any Java task that are needed. > The only thing I miss on this side is a sort of "wide vision" on the > status of the project and what is needed, I've also a hard time keeping up with what is done outside of the official repository and mailing list. However I've been working a lot on the wiki documentation as it is badly needed and nobody seems to do it. As for the documentation: - I'm documenting the project infrastructure (website, server, contacts with the FSF, etc). This is strategic as this way we can make sure not to have people's work blocked by the lack of knowledge on who to contact to get the required accesses. This was often the case in the past. It also makes people's work more visible as some part of it becomes visible in the project's wiki or git. It is also a good practice to document your infrastructure as it has implication on its users privacy (RGPD compliance, etc). - We also need to improve the task page to add back in the information we added to the google summer of code tasks page. I've also started to do that. I've also some blog posts in preparation related to the recent announcements regarding Replicant. > so we could use some coordination to make a point of what I need to > work on..
