I already have a python script processing mails received in the Calendar folder to get the ical event and push it to radicale. It has several drawbacks:
- It doesn't detect appointment changes (pretty easy to fix as each event has a unique ID)
- It doesn't detect deleted appointments. This would need to change the script to loop over the mails and already existing events in radicale to sync them.
- It's a one way script only: from GroupWise to Radicale, the other way still needs to be done.
For this project there are two ways to go and I am still unsure which one would be the best:
- Use the GroupWise SOAP API: that's what evolution connector used to do and it's only activated on some post offices.
- Continue the IMAP way: that would require to loop over the whole content of the Calendar folder regularly... is that slower than looping over the events via the SOAP API?
The code of the hackweek project is on github. The project has progressed a lot, but is still not finished. I ended up with:
- Reading the ical events from IMAP: less parsing work than SOAP and easy to get working
- Diffing iCalendar files
- Listing on the changes on a iCalendar file using pyinotify
- Writing a simple SOAP client in python to access the events to update / remove them (adding could work easily through SMTP)
- Attachments files are downloaded and properly linked from the events
What is missing:
- Getting the event ID in a not too time-consuming way using SOAP
- Convert from iCAL representation to the XML description used by the SOAP API
- Actually delete / update events
- Actually add events (may not got the SOAP way)

ehh pragmatic comment on the choice of imap or soap - not knowing the complexity of neither the one nor the other, but Groupwise components rather use soap between them (webaccess to postOffice)(datasynchroniser to postOffice) The knowledge in the GroupWise team - should you need help, may be more ready available on SOAP. Bear in mind that Datasynchroniser conains a number of connectors if there are other ways to pass in and out of groupwise: http://www.novell.com/documentation/datasync_connectors1/ (hmm i think they stripped a few connectors in the latest doc - not a good sign . . .

Improve/rework household chore tracker `chorazon` by gniebler
Description
I wrote a household chore tracker named chorazon, which is meant to be deployed as a web application in the household's local network.
It features the ability to set up different (so far only weekly) schedules per task and per person, where tasks may span several days.
There are "tokens", which can be collected by users. Tasks can (and usually will) have rewards configured where they yield a certain amount of tokens. The idea is that they can later be redeemed for (surprise) gifts, but this is not implemented yet. (So right now one needs to edit the DB manually to subtract tokens when they're redeemed.)
Days are not rolled over automatically, to allow for task completion control.
We used it in my household for several months, with mixed success. There are many limitations in the system that would warrant a revisit.
It's written using the Pyramid Python framework with URL traversal, ZODB as the data store and Web Components for the frontend.
Goals
- Add admin screens for users, tasks and schedules
- Add models, pages etc. to allow redeeming tokens for gifts/surprises
- …?

Song Search with CLAP by gcolangiuli
Description
Contrastive Language-Audio Pretraining (CLAP) is an open-source library that enables the training of a neural network on both Audio and Text descriptions, making it possible to search for Audio using a Text input. Several pre-trained models for song search are already available on huggingface
Goals
Evaluate how CLAP can be used for song searching and determine which types of queries yield the best results by developing a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) in Python. Based on the results of this MVP, future steps could include:
- Music Tagging;
- Free text search;
- Integration with an LLM (for example, with MCP or the OpenAI API) for music suggestions based on your own library.
The code for this project will be entirely written using AI to better explore and demonstrate AI capabilities.
Result
In this MVP we implemented:
- Async Song Analysis with Clap model
- Free Text Search of the songs
- Similar song search based on vector representation
- Containerised version with web interface
We also documented what went well and what can be improved in the use of AI.
You can have a look at the result here:
Future implementation can be related to performance improvement and stability of the analysis.

Collection and organisation of information about Bulgarian schools by iivanov
Description
To achieve this it will be necessary:
- Collect/download raw data from various government and non-governmental organizations
- Clean up raw data and organise it in some kind database.
- Create tool to make queries easy.
- Or perhaps dump all data into AI and ask questions in natural language.
Goals
By selecting particular school information like this will be provided:
- School scores on national exams.
- School scores from the external evaluations exams.
- School town, municipality and region.
- Employment rate in a town or municipality.
- Average health of the population in the region.
Resources
Some of these are available only in bulgarian.

Results
- Information about all Bulgarian schools with their scores during recent years cleaned and organised into SQL tables
- Information about all Bulgarian villages, cities, municipalities and districts cleaned and organised into SQL tables
- Information about all Bulgarian villages and cities census since beginning of this century cleaned and organised into SQL tables.
- Information about all Bulgarian municipalities about religion, ethnicity cleaned and organised into SQL tables.
- Data successfully loaded to locally running Ollama with help to Vanna.AI
- Seems to be usable.
TODO
- Add more statistical information about municipalities and ....

Update M2Crypto by mcepl
There are couple of projects I work on, which need my attention and putting them to shape:
Goal for this Hackweek
- Put M2Crypto into better shape (most issues closed, all pull requests processed)
- More fun to learn jujutsu
- Play more with Gemini, how much it help (or not).
- Perhaps, also (just slightly related), help to fix vis to work with LuaJIT, particularly to make vis-lspc working.
Liz - Prompt autocomplete by ftorchia
Description
Liz is the Rancher AI assistant for cluster operations.
Goals
We want to help users when sending new messages to Liz, by adding an autocomplete feature to complete their requests based on the context.
Example:
- User prompt: "Can you show me the list of p"
- Autocomplete suggestion: "Can you show me the list of p...od in local cluster?"
Example:
- User prompt: "Show me the logs of #rancher-"
- Chat console: It shows a drop-down widget, next to the # character, with the list of available pod names starting with "rancher-".
Technical Overview
- The AI agent should expose a new ws/autocomplete endpoint to proxy autocomplete messages to the LLM.
- The UI extension should be able to display prompt suggestions and allow users to apply the autocomplete to the Prompt via keyboard shortcuts.
