Collabora Student Outreach Programme!
by David North 27 Oct '08

27 Oct '08

Will Thompson sends this: Interested in writing free software as a part time job? Here at Collabora Ltd.[0] we're looking for students to work on Telepathy[1] and Empathy[2] (an instant messaging framework and a client implemented on top of it, respectively), to help us bring it them to feature parity with other IM clients (think file transfer) and work on some of the ideas we don't have enough hands to implement (such as: an IM daemon you can run on a server and reattach to from whatever computer you find yourself at, like an IRC proxy but for all your IM protocols; running a Quake server for a few of your IM contacts without having to faff around with port forwarding and distributing IP addresses; portability to Windows and OS X; etc.). If this sounds like your kind of thing, send your CV over to jobs(a)collabora.co.uk. Experience with glib, Gtk+, and other open source libraries is an advantage, but not essential; we're a helpful bunch, and most of us started out as student part-timers. :-) If you'd like to talk about Telepathy or Collabora, feel free to drop by the #telepathy IRC channel on Freenode, or get in touch with me on IRC (I'm wjt on #compsoc on OxIRC, or on Freenode, OFTC, etc.), email or Jabber (will.thompson(a)collabora.co.uk in both cases).

Italian Society website
by David North 26 Oct '08

26 Oct '08

[Andrey sends the following - DN] Dear members, The Italian Society is looking for someone to slightly improve their existing website [0]. Basically, it's just adding a few new tabs and a wall, where members could leave their comments. In return the society offers a *free membership and a free entrance to all events organised by the Society, which include regular tastings of Italian food and wine*. Personally, I think that's a very good deal. If you are potentially up for it, reply to this message. Best wishes, Andrey [0]: http://users.ox.ac.uk/~itasoc/ItalSoc/Home.html -- David North Treasurer and Systems Administration Co-ordinator Oxford Computer Society 07746 388 044 // northie on OxIRC

Web Developer needed for a Climate Policy Research Group
by Andrew Godwin 22 Oct '08

22 Oct '08

WEB DEVELOPER needed for a Climate Policy Research Group You would be creating a medium-profile site, with an estimated one hundred analysts signing up and filling out forms in the first couple of weeks. We intend to run a blog which will be updated on a near-daily basis. By the end of the year we hope to be attracting media attention and traffic, so there would be plenty of opportunity as a developer to get your name out and be associated with an up-and-coming national research organisation; last year our reports were being handed out at the G8 Summit. The position would however be unpaid. If you are interested it would be great to hear from you. Please contact Niel Bowerman at niel.bowerman(a)keble.ox.ac.uk <mailto:niel.bowerman@keble.ox.ac.uk> Also, we are looking for a GRAPHIC DESIGNER to do some work for us. They would be responsible for designing a logo, helping out with the front-end web design, and creating a branding package. Again, there would be plenty of opportunity to have your/their name and artwork/layout on some decent reports (last year our annual report was being passed around at the G8 Summit). Is this something that you might be interested in getting involved in? Or would you be able to put me in touch with some people that might be interested?

Magdalen Contemporary Orchestra Website
by David North 22 Oct '08

22 Oct '08

Hello all, The Magdalen College Contemporary Orchestra is looking for someone to deal with the technical side of a new website for them. Details below - if you're interested, reply to this message. --David Marius sends this: I’m the manager of the MCO this year, along with Danny Saleeb, who graduated this past summer, and is now directing operations from London. We were wondering if (currently in principle, mainly) anyone would be prepared to help us set up a website for the orchestra that we could use to publicise our concerts, stream media, administer ticket sales and the like. Danny is currently working with a friend of his to design the images for our next concert in 7th week of Michaelmas, so the designing details are yet to come through, but it would be great to know we can rely on your help later on! -- David North Treasurer and Systems Administration Co-ordinator Oxford Computer Society 07746 388 044 // northie on OxIRC
