[maemo-developers] Twitter application for canola2 as a gsoc project

[From: Luis Felipe Strano Moraes]

Hi,

we would be definitely interested in the application. Try coming by
on #canola on irc.freenode.net to chat. Also, try to research into
other clients that have been written in python already, or if there is
a twitter library of some kind already done.
Ideally applicants would already know python, but if you don't and
can learn quickly, that wouldn't be that much of a problem (specially
if you are already familiar with MVC and things like that). One way
to show that you can learn quickly would be to contribute a patch
to canola, try to find a bug or something simple that you'd like to
change on canola or the plugins and seeing if you can find your way
around the source code.

There is a mailing list for Canola (though it hasn't been actively used
quite yet, discussing tihs would be a good way to start :P):

Cheers,
