Looking for mentor of Kopete in GSoC-2018

[Himanshu Vishwakarma]

Hi Everyone,

I am looking for a mentor for the project "Write tests and Improve protocol
support" for the kopete.

I am already working on the project, this SoK and further want to continue
the project in GSoC also, but due to the absence of the mentor, it is
currently in dilemma. My current mentor in SoK is not going to mentor me in
GSoC.

It is a good opportunity for me to take the development of Kopete
application forward.

The major task which is going to do in the GSoC-2018 are following:


   - Write the test of all the important class of the libkopete like
   KopetePluginManager, ManagedConnectionAccount, FileTransferInfo,
   ConnectionManager and many others. and also need the test of protocol
   classes like the Jabber protocol, Gadu protocol, and others.
   - Improve the protocol support. Remove outdated technology from the
   protocol and implement the some new like, replace the OTR with the OMEMO.
   Old protocol needed to remove, like AIM protocol. some more protocol neede
   to improvement like the skype need the plugin.
   - Resolve the issue of the connecting problem in the login account and
   restarting the application and some other bugs are in the kopete.
   - Improvement in the workflow of the application and make it easier to
   use.
   - Kopete application needed a good documentation. Present documentation
   is very old it needed some improvement.


Can anyone mentor me this GSoC?
