[GSoc 2018] Query about idea - User Mentions or Social Sharing

Post by shreyansh007 »

I explored phpbb and found it quite interesting. I am drafting a proposal for this on @-user mentions. I have worked on few issues related to user mentions in Zulip, so I have quite a good idea about how to implement this in phpbb. I have also good knowledge of PHP.

I am confused whether to choose 'User Mentions' or 'Social Sharing' for drafting the proposal. My proposal is half completed and hopefully I will finish it by tomorrow. Please guide me which idea to choose.

Hi shreyansh007,
it's really up to you. Pick the one you find more interesting. Also you can send two proposals, so maybe you can choose both.

I would go with User Mentions, as Social Sharing makes me think of facebook share etc.
