[tor-dev] [GSoC 2014] Revamp GetTor status update #6



Hi people.

This is my sixth and last report for the 'Revamp GetTor' GSoC project. I'll try to summarize what I've done in the last two weeks. If you have any comments, please tell me!

Achievements:

[*] Solved pending issues on the XMPP module, and tested it on a couple more providers.
[*] Created a simple guide for testing both SMTP and XMPP module.
[*] Opened tickets for documenting and discussing what's been done during GSoC.
[*] Forked and modified the current code* of BridgeDB Twitter distributor to create a basic Twitter module. I haven't finished this, since there are some issues** I'd like to discuss before doing further development.
[*] Started to work on blacklisting of users (not finished).

There are still some days left until the hard deadline for GSoC, so I'll try to finish the last point during the weekend. I haven't been able to test the SMTP module on a real environment, I'll try to do that in the weekend too.

I guess I'll write another e-mail to this list once GSoC is over, to talk about the entire process and development of the project. One of the things I can tell you is that so far I've written ~1500 lines (I know, quantity doesn't mean quality). I have already communicated to my mentors that I want to keep working on GetTor after GSoC, and given that I've re-written most of the code, I'll be happy to maintain it, too.

*: at least what is public on Github.
**: the issues are related to Twitter API terms and privacy. I sent an e-mail to this list [0] for discussion. Feel free to comment.
