Hi everybody!
I'm working on a GSoC project for enhancing Euscan
(http://euscan.iksaif.net/). Euscan allows to check if a given
package/ebuild has new upstream versions or not. It uses different
heuristic to scan upstream and grab new versions and related urls.
Euscan has a web interface for surfing data but for now is only possible
to see the scan results per package/category/herd/maintainers/overlay.
We're working now on the possibility to register and provide a cool
dashboard for maintainers, so that they can easily keep an eye on the
upstream versions of the packages they maintain.
The main question is: what would you like to have on this dashboard?
Currently (in the development version) there's the possibility to login
and watch/unwatch packages/categories/herds/... and see the watched
stuff in the account dashboard. We're planning on implementing a
weekly(?) custom newsletter based on the packages you're watching, which
features would you like?
The project repo for the GSoC is here: https://github.com/volpino/euscan
Thanks!
Looking forward to seeing the improvements. :)
I'd like to see the information regarding current tree state updated
more regularly than the full upstream scan. Especially when looking at
the herd view, it can be hard to keep track of which bumps have already
been completed.
