POSSE Activities
Section A
The roles of content writer and developer seem most applicable for my students for this project. The commonalities across roles is in the description that all roles are to communicate through something that are specific to the roles. The difference of roles is in the required skills for each role. In order to report a bug for sugar labs, first visit GitHub repo, find the relevant activity, then report it using the issues tab of the repo. Types of tickets are either defect, task or enhancement. Information available for each ticket includes the reporting person, priority, milestone, component, version, severity, bug status, and description. As of 5/6/18, last commit was made on Apr 29, 2018. Roadmap is updated at the beginning of each release cycle.
Each type of contributor has specific skills required. Contributors are welcome to go ahead work on any of tasks for Sahana Eden project, while for Sugar Labs, volunteers are asked to contact the person to get started. Bugs can be categorized and found using different options. Types of tickets are either defect/bug, documentation, task, or enhancement. Information available for each ticket includes summary, component, priority, type, owner, version, status, and created date. As of 5/6/18, last commit was made on May 4, 2018.
Section B.1 - Field Trip
On GitHub, for a Search with the keyword Education, there are 20,638 repository results as of 6-11-2018. First project on the list is "A list of helpful material to develop using Angular" and on the Insight tab, Commits shows the graphs of the number of commit activities weekly. The last commit was made during the week of October 22, 2017.
For another search with the keyword Humanitarian, there are 400 repository results. For the project HTBox/crisischeckin, was last updated on Nov 29, 2017.
For another search with the keyword Disaster management, there are 237 repository results.
On Openhub, for a search with the keyword education, there are 226 pages of results with 2252 projects. For the project KDE Education, the Code locations indicate that all the codes are using git as SCM, but none located on Github. There are 10 similar projects to KDE education on openhub. It says that it requires more users for this KDE project to determine the relationship between projects of users.
For a search with the keyword humanitarian, there are 21 projects. For a search with the keyword disaster management, there are 30 projects. Some projects have no Activity information, because they have no code locations available.
Organizations page on Openhub provides the information such as newly added organizations, most active organizations, the number of organizations of each sector, and the names of organizations made commits in recent 30 days.
On Openhub, the last commit for OpenMRS Core project was made on 3-11-2018. On GitHub, the last commit for OpenMRS Core project was made on Jun 11, 2018. The difference between two sites for the same project is probably due to the synchronization of information gathering regarding the repositories for the project codes. One may not have the up-to-date information. While Github has its codes in it, openhub seems to just have the project information including code locations.
