Microtasks (Vinay Raghavan)[edit]

First Task[edit]

This is in reference to bug 60091.

It is a better idea to categorize contributors of open source projects based on their affiliation rather than the company. Affiliation could be anything like - profit, non-profit, individual volunteering etc. Hence, the current korma pages(which used 'companies') needed to reviewed and changed as per affiliation.

I did this in a pull request and the changes can be seen here. The existing repository that does not have affiliations is seen here.

  • The changes mostly involved replacing the companies with affiliations.
  • Some files also had to be renamed in order to be compatible with the changed code.


Second Task[edit]

I was asked to create a simple application using Django. The application was to function as an identity editor allowing users to maintain their online identity.

I have built the application and hosted it on my VPS here
