Good news, #Gephi is not abandoned and is looking for #Java developers: https://gephi.wordpress.com/2021/07/19/gephi-road-map-summer-2021/
Today I tried to submit a patch to #Thunderbird… what a journey! Learning about #Mercurial first, then trying to install all the build dependencies and miserably failing >_< I still submitted my untested patch without much hope…

It looks like they are a bit stuck in the #Java environment and want to move to web-based… https://gephi.wordpress.com/
Adopt an #unmaintained #FOSS project: #Gephi, a fantastic graph visualization tool, whose development seems to have stalled https://github.com/gephi/gephi
We are starting a #CyclingWithoutAge group in #Wurzen and we need your support to buy the first #bike! https://www.betterplace.org/en/projects/94806 #RadelnOhneAlter
Today I discovered #poetry, a #Python package manager, which you are supposed to install with `curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/… | python -`. So you write a package manager but you don't think it is worth #packaging it? Really?
We are hiring an engineer to improve http://dissem.in. https://blog.dissem.in/2021/dissemin-is-hiring-a-software-engineer
Adopting abandoned FOSS projects to maintain them is a rewarding experience. I hope this could happen to #Tabula, https://github.com/tabulapdf/tabula, because it's a great tool.

We need your feedback on the new #OpenRefine user manual https://bit.ly/39jWcob
I just don't want to count the number of repositories I need to migrate out of #TravisCI after their princing update. I am still hoping for a quick U-turn on their side, otherwise I will hardly do anything else this month.
We just now realized that GND reconciliation via lobid-gnd has been added to Alma Refine. Nice. https://developers.exlibrisgroup.com/blog/how-to-use-the-alma-refine-cloud-app-for-service-gnd/

En collaboration avec @TelecomParis_ notre équipe @ENS_ULM/@INS2I_CNRS/@Inria @InriaValda remporte un projet #scienceouverte @ouvrirlascience pour le développement de @disseminOA permettant de déposer les travaux de recherche dans des archives ouvertes. http://dissem.in https://twitter.com/ouvrirlascience/status/1324343795111124997
I have set up a load balancer for the first time (for the #Wikidata #reconciliation service) and what a satisfaction! It works!
Under the hood, it uses fancy Python3 #asyncio, a nice revival of cooperative multitasking. What else would you expect for a collaborative knowledge base, after all?
A new #Wikidata #OpenRefine reconciliation service is here: https://wikidata.reconci.link/ It should be faster and more robust.
Progress update: connecting http://dissem.in to institutional repositories via #Shibboleth, thanks to the Opening Project and RENATER: https://blog.dissem.in/2020/connecting-to-institutional-repositories-via-shibboleth-authentication
What do folks use as #caldav servers to synchronize their calendars across machines? I would prefer not having to set up a Google Calendar for that…
Working on #OpenRefine and riding recumbent bikes, to sum it up!
