As mentioned at the recent Summit in Graz, elan and the University of Bremen are collaborating for an Opencast AdminUI BugBash: elan will lead an introductory workshop, to tackle the bottleneck caused by limited expertise in this area.
- Date: May 13-14, 2025
- Meetings (meet.opencast.video; p: welcome)
- Kick-off Workshop AdminUI by elan: May 13, 8am UTC (10am CEST) (will be recorded!)
- Technical meeting: May 13, 3:15pm UTC (5:15pm CEST)
- Daily: May 14, 8am UTC (10am CEST)
- Final: May 14, 3pm UTC (5pm CEST)
The goal of these two days is to bring together as many people as possible to identify bugs, fix them, and review the resulting patches in order to significantly advance the AdminUI.
If you want to help, that would be great. We need people to…
- test the new user interface to create issues
- fix issues and create pull requests
- review pull requests
We would like to take this opportunity to once again highlight the webinar that explains how to test and review Opencast Admin UI pull requests. HERE
To add the necessary fun factor to the event, we will track progress on a leaderboard, just like in the last BugBash. Those who contribute the most can look forward to small prizes.
To participate just show up at the meetings, visit our Matrix channel at #opencast-community:matrix.org or just work in GitHub.
You cannot make it but want to help regardless?
- You can already start identifying problems and file them as an issue. Please also file usability issues, or other suggestions for improvements.
- You can put money into hiring developers from the usual suspects when
it comes to experience with Opencast development. - You can help to translate the admin interface on Crowdin.
