I found this solid issue-nexB/aboutcode#69, please guide me on where I can get the following documentation source code on github -https://www.aboutcode.org/projects/aboutcode-toolkit.html
I am trying to resolve it, (GSOC21)
@pombredanne I just created a pull request for issue 620 nexB/scancode-toolkit#2486 please have a look. Thank you...
Hello everyone:) I'm Yuchen.
I'm a first-year master's student at the University of Zurich with experiences and interests in web.
I'm aiming at ideas of [Prototype a license detection view for scancode.io]
or [Create web application for massive scanning campaign of a whole package ecosystem]
From titles, I'm more interested in the latter, but sadly its link to the detail page isn't valid, is it still open?
Though without much time I'll try my best to finish a good proposal because I really don't wanna miss this chance!

So through scancode.io web app I have executed a docker image analysis and downloaded the json output.
However the runlog stopped at 'Step [collect_and_create_system_packages] starting' and the output is incomplete .
If I ran it through cmd, I always got error messages of 'Temporary failure in name resolution ’
Anyone got a clue and would like to guide me? Many Thanks!

hi, all my name is Mahendra Suthar. I am 3rd year CS undergraduate from NIT KKR India. I had worked previously on Django, React, and currently on Angular at my internship. I am also good with C/C++ . I also developed some group projects using git for version control and Github for issues and all. I am new to open source and I would like to contribute to About Code project they are interesting. Lots of problem solving.
Are only those who have contributed to about code before being selected for gsoc2021?
@whostheme re:
[Create web application for massive scanning campaign of a whole package ecosystem]
The goal there is to scan for instance all the packages of PyPI or all of CPAN.
(likely using scancode.io)
Then using heuristics and tools, flags scans that need review and create the UI that would allow handling an efficient review queue and offer and efficient review UI
Such that this can be used to review and curate the license and origin data of thousands packages efficiently
And then we want to help push upstream the curated updated data to each project or the main package repo
of that ecosystem
If only a draft has been submitted, this is as if nothing has been submitted
yours is good
as it should!
@itssingh tell me if this makes sense or if you have questions :)

@itssingh BTW, this looks like a neat project of yours! :+1: https://github.com/itssingh/scanology/commits/feat/scancode

I heard similar things from other orgs as well. But they were saying that it was less spam this year.
@Abhishek-Dev09 I'd say that the number of good, well written proposals has been going up overall
@gat786 exactly :)
Just saw AboutCode in GSoD'21 https://developers.google.com/season-of-docs/docs/participants, Congratulations everyone :)
