I still have one exam left; I wonder if e-proctor would be compatible with linux/bsd distros.
About contributing to GNU social; In fact, the tasks concerning your original application are being handled by the accepted student. But v2 wasn't released as stable and there are pending tasks still. There's nothing frontend related pending tho, all v2 pending tasks are backend: https://loadaverage.org/url/5969594
On the frontend is harder because SoC students are required to do their tasks on their own/individually... On the other hand, it's predicted that @portableskelly finishes his tasks this month so, you can try talking with him on XMPP and maybe you can agree on doing something on v3 frontend during August :)
Finally, there currently are 24 open bugs concerning v2: https://loadaverage.org/url/5969595 , many of them are easy to fix/beginner friendly.
I've been full of exams as well, but they aren't doing it online here. Covid-19, in Portugal, stops attacking on the scheduled exams hours. I guess that University of Porto has tamed it! :')
Hi! :) @XRevan86 doesn't have the ActivityPub plugin enabled in LoadAverage as it isn't ready to be used with stability in a production setting. The AP plugin may be enabled here as soon as we move GNU social v2 from dev to beta :)
Our frontend prospective students had to work on a new landing page for gnusocial.network as part of their application. Help us decide which will be replacing the existing website in our IRC channel (or by simply replying to this note): https://www.diogo.site/projects/GNU-social/soc/2020/landing/
