[Bradford] CentOS Test Day

[David Carpenter]

I'd be interested to learn more about the CentOS tests, so +1 from me.

If you are looking for open source projects to poke around in there is
a whole load of stuff around the International Aid Transparency
Initiative that partly employs me at the moment. A list of
applications is here: http://wiki.iatistandard.org/tools/start and the
stuff I'm working on is here:
https://github.com/caprenter/ Happy to talk you through anything,
which might be the best way to get started if this interests you.

Also as a side project, I have this going on:
http://www.setlistr.co.uk/
code: https://github.com/caprenter/Setlistr

It could do with a load of user feedback on using the app, using the
API, setting up and self installation, security testing, etc etc.
Checking the licencing, and seeing if you can install it and get it to
work would be a big help.

Or, it's a nice day - go for a walk!

All the best
David
