a project idea... help needed!

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hey guys... I've got a project idea I proposed to Red Hat directly and
Brendan Conoboy told me that they don't deal with this sort of thing..
what I need is a nice little program I'm willing to pay for or give to
open source or both.

The basics.. you have an icon in the notification area of gnome or in
the system menu.. click on the icon then you have a list of your hosts
or groups or whatever, once you click on any one of the hosts or
groups, you're prompted to choose the action you want to perform on
the host or group. All the actions are simple templates with
parameters so they're all open and modifiable. You can add more hosts
or remove hosts, etc.

I need something like this bad because my shell scripts are now in the
hundreds and I'd rather be able to quickly do things to groups with my
desktop.

Now i just need to figure out if i have to pay someone to make it or
if i can find somewhere that interest in the project will get it off
the ground.

I did a little mock-up and put it up here.

Thanks in advance. And like I said, I'm willing to pay for this and
give the project to open source. I'm not loaded by my company needs
this so I need to pony up and do it. If anything I'll beg my customers
and the OSS supporters for some donations to help recoup some costs or
write it off on my taxes :)
