Special Request!
We just launched a new system at https://release-monitoring.org and it's
really neat. You can read more about it here:
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel-
announce/2015-February/001541.html
There is one labor-intensive part of the process: people login to https
://release-monitoring.org and they find "projects" there that do not
having a mapping to a Fedora "package". For instance, someone has to go
find that the project "nethack" is called "nethack" in Fedora (obvious) or
that the project "PyJWT" is called "python-jwt" in Fedora (less obvious).
I'd love to award badges to people who are going through and doing all
that hard work on the almost 20,000 packages we have in Fedora.
We have this all looped into fedmsg, so implementation of an auto-awarded
badge will be easy.
For badge art concepts, how about this:
- A satellite dish radiating a signal, perhaps to another world.
- A badger or panda operating a telegraph, perhaps with a satellite dish
radiating a signal in the background.
- Hermes! I.e., a panda with winged sandals. He was the 'messenger',
right? Or maybe just an image of the winged sandals:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talaria
The idea here is that people are helping Fedora get the latest software
into our queue faster than ever before.. so hence the satellite dish,
hermes, etc.. The telegraph might be cool to continue the kind of retro-
tech thing we have going on in some place (i.e., the model T motorcar
badge).
We can definitely do this one in a series:
- 1 upstream package mapped to Fedora
- 50 upstream packages mapped to Fedora
- 100 upstream packages mapped to Fedora
- 250 upstream packages...
- 1000 ..
