Hi all,
In the past few years I have been creating some Flickr related tools. These are: * FlickreviewR: A bot that reviews the licenses from images uploaded from Flickr * FlickreviewR human reviewer: A bot that re-reviews reviews by humans * Flickr upload bot: A web interface that allows easy access
FlickreviewR has over 110k edits and with Flickr upload bot over 12k uploads have been performed. Unfortunately I have not always been able to care of those bots decently.
Therefore I would like to propose to add maintainers to those bots; preferably as a stable toolserver project on stable.toolserver.org. Who would be interested in maintaining these bots?
The bots are written in Python and use the mwclient library to edit and upload, which I also wrote. I will also give commit access to mwclient on SourceForge to maintainers.
The FlickreviewR bots' code are in relatively good shape, reasonably ok documented and can be easily understood I believe.
The Flickr upload bot however has horrible code. It was basically my first large webapp and I had some strange design ideas by then. I have attempted rewriting it, but have not had the time yet.
Feel free to forward this mail to other people who might be interested in co-maintaining.
Regards,
Bryan
I'm not sure i'd have good enough programming skills to take this on myself, but one thing that would be very useful for the flickr tool - which I use all the time and is really invaluable by the way - is if you could do group uploads or more than one image at a time. Please could you pass this on to whoever comes forward to do any re-write.
