[limesurvey-developers] Introducing myself
Gabriel Jenik

Hi everybody,

My name is Gabriel Jenik, from Argentina.
I would like to join the Limesurvey team.

I have used the tool and find it usefull. As I also use Yii, would like to
add my 2 cents to the product.
Also, I found myself while reading the example pitch given in the site: 'I
am bored to death!'.

In relation to the area I would like to help: I though about starting on
patching as to get used and mingle into the code.

Please find below a little but about my self:


I have +10yrs experience in PHP. Have been working with a diversity of
databases, as Postgre and MySQL, and frameworks: Yii, CodeIgniter, and even
with frameworks which have been custom made for special customers.

I also have good experience in libraries as JQuery & GoogleMaps. As a side
note, I have been doing some update training on AngularJS and Meteor. As an
extra side note, I have experience working with other languages as ASP, VB,
VBA for Office.

When it comes to integration, I have experience with APIs, REST, JSON (as
to name technical concepts involved), as well as ETL. Also is to highlight
experience using AWS.S3 API.

As per Wordpress, besides creating and managing some sites, I have
developed a Scrapper of external websites to create posts using the WP API.
Also, have have modified standard themes for fitting into custom design
requierements.

Something else about myself:


I think I am good at analyzing and debugging code as well as have patience
to learn and dig it into already running apps.

I have a minimalist criteria as well as a good eye for suggesting changes
to apps. I prefer to move on cycles involving small changes, to better
control how the app shall react to the enhacenements.

I am a proactive and curious person. When having to analyze a situation I
don’t like to overlook or skip concepts which haven’t fully understand; If
the context allows it, I prefer to look for complemetary sources of
information to get a deep and full understanding of the idea.

I like, and find motivating, to learn and research about new concepts,
resulting in a direct benefit when having to adapt new conext and projects.
I am passionate about business process, information flow and their
technology support; as well as corporate strategy, business development and
business models.

It is to highlight, I have gone through a wide variety of positions:
Developer, Analyst, Presales and Sales.


Thanks in advance.

Hi Gabriel,

You seem to be the exact kind of guy we need and we certainly don't want to let you be "bored to death" and trust me working for the LimeSurvey team is an perfect medication ;-)
Please get in touch with Carsten Schmitz, maybe by IRC so that you can begin your "therapy".

You can begin by having a look at the bugtracker and try some small fixes to show us your motivation.

As a "retired" member (at least for now), and on behalf of the project team, I wish to welcome you on board,

Best regards,
Thibault

Hi Gabriel,

every help is welcome so thanks for saying hello.

As Thibault had already pointed out, checking the bugtracker and trying
to fix some simple issues is a good start. Just leave a note "I am
working on thisn issue" at the comments and then send us a pull request
for review later.
If you need help finding simple issues just ping me on IRC. For all
coding related questions users c_schmitz, shnoulle and sammousa are the
ones to be asked at our IRC.

Best regards,
Marcel

Hi Gabriel,

Welcome on board ;)

It's always a pleasure to have some help :)

Like Thibault say, you can see at bugs.limesurvey.org if there are any
bug to fix. Or you can try 2.06 branch and fix here too.

Hi,

I think I have solved my first issue:
http://bugs.limesurvey.org/view.php?id=9346
I took a tough one (high priority, not trivial).

The only issue I got is that I could mark the bug as solved.
Maybe lack of permissions?

Cheers,
