[libvirt] libvirt on up-for-grabs.net?

I just bumped into this website: http://up-for-grabs.net/ I wonder if we could try to get our Bite-sized Tasks[1] in the list... Of course we don't use GitHub for pull requests or issue tracking, but we could create a dummy issue called "Look at the Bite-sized Tasks wiki page" that contains a link to the wiki along with some explanation, and leave it open just so that it can be listed on up-for-grabs.net. What do you guys think? :) [1] http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/BiteSizedTasks -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization

Sounds like a fine idea. Note, the project doesn't have to be hosted on github to use this. That's just where you configure the up-for-grabs config. We just provide a text file like this pointing to libvirt.org / bugzilla: https://github.com/up-for-grabs/up-for-grabs.net/blob/gh-pages/_data/project...

You need to set the upforgrabs/name property with the label that your GitHub issues are tagged with; we could then have zero GitHub issues tagged with that label, but then the up-for-grabs website would show a issue count of zero for the project, and people would be unlikely to click through. So I still think we're going to need the dummy issue. But you're right, upforgrabs/link could point directly to the wiki instead of sending people to GitHub first. Does something like the following look reasonable? If it does, I'll take care of submitting it. name: libvirt desc: The virtualization API site: https://libvirt.org/ tags: - api - c - cross-platform - library - oss - virtualization upforgrabs: name: up-for-grabs link: http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/BiteSizedTasks -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization

Hmm, I wonder if we could setup a cron job which automatically created dummy github issues for each bugzilla ticket tagged with LibvirtFirstBug, where the github issue only contains a link to the bugzilla ticket. Alternatively, up-for-grabs is open source, so I wonder if we could simply send them a patch which lets them query bugzilla directly :-) Regards, Daniel -- |: http://berrange.com -o- http://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: http://entangle-photo.org -o- http://live.gnome.org/gtk-vnc :|

This sounds like it would work, however I'm afraid it might give the impression that we use GitHub way more than we actually do. People are also (hopefully) not going to attach pull requests to a GitHub issue that is a stand-in for several actual issues.

That would be lovely! But I'm not volunteering to actually implement it ;) -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization

Since nobody spoke against it, I proposed libvirt for inclusion: https://github.com/up-for-grabs/up-for-grabs.net/pull/430 -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization
