Release for 32C3 #105

Closed clonejo closed 8 years ago

clonejo commented 8 years ago

While the C3 is still over two weeks away, a timely release would be very cool. (before christmas?) I personally use the app to choose which talks to watch before the Congress.

I tested the 32C3 schedule with the current release (on F-Droid) using the "alternate URL" and the only issues I noticed are the 31C3 design (obviously) and a broken colour scheme for the Security and Failosophy tracks (white text on a light grey background, see also #104).

This depends on the release of the Congress design (last year it released on day 0), which would be quite late. A generically designed release (maybe keep the 31C3 design) seems sensible.

I also use the app to make my personal selection before the congress. The schedule for 32C3 has been released at 11.12.2015. I am already trying to find out if there is a design/color scheme/logo prepared. With regards to the track categories and color schemes - I tried to simplified this part of the code on the feature/simplify-handling-track-background-colors branch but it is not finalized.

@johnjohndoe highly appreciated if you update the app :-). Let me know if I can pay you with mate or beer at 32c3

johnjohndoe commented 8 years ago

@iggs0 I have to clarify that I am just an ordinary contributor as anyone else - I do not have write or merge access. @tuxmobil is in charge of preparing the app for 32c3 and publishing a release. However, anyone can help to fix the bugs or implement features which are listed in the issue tracker.

The design is online: https://events.ccc.de/congress/2015/wiki/Static:Design

johnjohndoe commented 8 years ago

@bjoernb Thank you - @tuxmobil already added it in the 32c3 branch.

ajdergute commented 8 years ago

Thanks a lot. The new design is very cool.

Also don't forget to update the listing name and logo this time, the 31C3 release is listed as “30C3 Schedule (Congress)” (https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdid=nerd.tuxmobil.fahrplan.congress).

tuxmobil commented 8 years ago

The app is in the Play Store (built from 65b5ca2dc5a381a30027223884481b795a708dc5). I haven't done the fdroid releases in the past. I hope the same people will do so that did that in the past years.

Is it possoble to make one App for all events with one name and to receive the current schedules and artwork the user has only to change the APIs URL and there are preconfigured URLs for the next events?

tuxmobil commented 8 years ago

That would require that the backend would deliver those meta-informations in a defined way. That's not the case as of today. The artwork has to be prepared to meet the specifications for an android app and that would require the backend to deliever this as well, as well as for other mobile platforms with other needs. Due to this needs and since we are not the backend guys, I do not see this happen in the medium term.

sedrubal commented 8 years ago

Ah OK and what's about providing a second api for artwork? ;)

tuxmobil commented 8 years ago

We'd love to see improvements on API for content rather than artwork first. Despite that, this is probably the wrong audience as we're doing the app only, not the backend/APIs.
