Looking for Coders or Testers for an Open Source File Organizer
I started an open source file organizer called Miranda. Miranda is inspired by Belvedere written by Adam Pash of Lifehacker (http:// lifehacker.com/341950/belvedere-automates-your-self+cleaning-pc). I know you guys must be thinking "Hmm, Miranda, isn't that an IM application ?"; Yep I hear you, I'll change the name once I get a good name. I am open for any suggestions. Miranda is written in Python, meant for Ubuntu, but hopefully it can be tested for every Linux Flavour. I have nothing much to offer in return for the software,but I will acknowledge your contribution in the software, and give credit to anyone helping when I feature Miranda in How-To Geek : http://www.howtogeek.com/ I am a beginner in python, so the code may look a bit messy, and I am open to rewrite the code if I can get a mentor whom I can pair with for coding the application. I do have 7+ years of programming, web development, database, desktop, you name it. So I am not totally blind of programming, but it will be great to get an experienced python programmer who has the passion for coding, and the patience to mentor a beginner python. The chief geek has given his nod of approval to publish Miranda through how-to geek, and I can pitch any of your software to him, and write an article about it - provided that the chief geek approve the software. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Thank you all for the replies; I really appreciate it. I should have mentioned in my original message that I am hosting the code in Google Code: http://code.google.com/p/mirandafileorganizer/ The home page has a link to a developer/user guide: http://code.google.com/p/mirandafileorganizer/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Hi Chris, Thank you for the reply. I should have mentioned where I am hosting the code *doh slap on the wrist.

Let me know if you have any problem with the application, just IM me at gtalk, or email me. I am located in Wellington, New Zealand, so there might be some lag in our communication. I shall try to answer any of your questions as prompt as possible =) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

What would you like to see in a File Organizer ?
We are writing a linux file organizer with the code name Cruftbuster. Cruftbuster is an automated file management application for Linux that performs actions on files based on user-defined criteria. For example, if your files in a folder have not been accessed for more than a year and bigger than 20 MB, you can tell Cruftbuster to automatically send it to the Trash folder. This is the interim user guide : https://docs.google.com/document/d/1OGvrS5offb27WlkZ5genMJX2El18AqrnfY0VvTOsPQk/edit?authkey=CJ_q7Dw&hl=en_US We are about to release a beta version soon, and we are looking for some ideas for good functionality for the application. The alpha version is in Google Code; http://code.google.com/p/mirandafileorganizer/downloads/list. You are welcome to try it out. Please be patient with it, because it is still under heavy development. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
