The ultimate goal is to have something, at least, similar to this prototype [1]

It must be compatible with Wikisource, Wikibooks, and occasionally Wikipedia.

This is is split into other small bugs (dependencies) to facilitate the work.

I have created Google Code-in tasks for the depending bugs that were ready for it, and I have left questions/requests in the rest.

Are there more BookManager v2 related bugs anywhere? Raylton mentioned twenty-something reports, but here there are only six open.

raylton.sousa added a comment.Dec 4 2013, 7:06 PM

33 here: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/buglist.cgi?component=BookManagerv2&list_id=243412&query_format=advanced&resolution=---&order=bug_status%20DESC%2Cresolution%2Cchangeddate%20DESC%2Cpriority%2Cassigned_to%2Cbug_id&query_based_on=

But some of the bugs are relatively complex.

Now Raylton is a GCI mentor and Legoktm (mentor too) has been helping reviewing patches and tasks. I will leave you all the initiative in BookManager tasks.

As you can see GCI students are getting tasks done. The more you invest at the beginning, the more they learn, and the faster they get completing new tasks. Make sure that there is always BookManager tasks open, so they don't go away and repeat instead!

I will go to another area, maybe another GSoC project, to harvest tasks and, eventually, new mentors. :) Thank you very much!

Declining because BookManagerv2 is an archived extension now. Please see T178938: Archive the BookManagerv2 extension for details. All Gerrit patches were already abandoned long ago.
