Call for proposals to build public beta release of prav app
by Ravi Dwivedi 25 May '23

25 May '23

Hi, Are you an Android/Java developer? We are inviting proposals to build public beta release of prav app. We want to hire someone and pay them to add the following features: 1. The app should support message retractions-- means group admins should be able to clear up unwanted messages/spam. 2. Users should be able to sign up with a custom username in addition to the current model in which phone number is the username for all the users. This will need changes in both the prav app and the server side. 3. Publish the app in f-droid app store. 4. Enable sign up by SMS OTP (configure SMS gateway in server). If you are interested or if you know anyone suitable for the job, please contact us by email (prav at fsci dot in) or any of the methods mentioned here https://prav.app/#contact. Thanks. -- Ravi Dwivedi https://ravidwivedi.in

Top priority features for prav app
by Ravi Dwivedi 06 Apr '23

06 Apr '23

Hi, After having a private beta launch, we did a poll with people who showed interest in planning the project, to prioritize development of features in prav app. The results of the poll are out. Please read this blog post for details https://prav.app/blog/results-of-our-feature-priority-polls/. We will focus our resources on these features as priority now: 1. Fix key sharing issues in encrypted groups (with commonly used XMPP clients). 2. Support message deletion/moderation. 3. Standardized SMS otp based sign up and login (using SASL2/fast so any XMPP app can be used with Prav account). 4. Develop Prav App for iOS. 5. Support automated backups and restore on demand. 6. Web based registration for prav account. 7. Prav App for GNU/Linux (operating systems like Ubuntu, Debian, Arch, fedora, etc.) 8. Reply to messages in prav app. 9. Feature to mark some messages as important to find them later. 10. Emojis and Stickers support. 11. Develop Prav App for MacOS. 12. Develop Prav App for Windows. 13. Provide an option to switch to Prav App as default SMS app. 14. Add Custom theme option (including chat background). -- Ravi Dwivedi https://ravidwivedi.in

Deadline and plan B for finding enough members from a second state to register as a multi state cooperative society
by Pirate Praveen 25 Mar '23

25 Mar '23

We have set a deadline for gathering required members to register as a multi state cooperative society through a poll in our codema.in group (people who have shown interest to help plan the project are part of the group). If we don't get 50 members from a second state by 15th June 2023, we should register it as a cooperative society in Kerala (it will be limited to members from a single district). Later when we reach required numbers for the multi state society, we can transfer ownership to it. So if we don't find 50 members from a second state (we have 50 from Kerala), we have to find 25 people from a single district in Kerala.

How can you help prav project
by Ravi Dwivedi 03 Mar '23

03 Mar '23

For prav project to be successful, we need more people to join as members of the Multi State Cooperative Society. By law, we need at least 50 members each from two Indian states before we can do the registration. At the moment have 50+ members from Kerala, 17 members from Maharashtra, and a few from various other states. Details are at https://prav.app/become-a-member. We have decided that if we fail to reach 50 members from a second state by June 15 this year, we plan to register as a cooperative in Kerala. This is an intermediate measure: we will still work to meet the necessary requirements in other states, and once that’s done, we will register as a Multi State Cooperative Society as originally planned. If we don’t get enough members by June 15th, we will have to go through a two-step process to register. To prevent this, we’re trying to onboard members as soon as possible—and we need your help! - You can register as a member and spread the word to your friends to register as well, by visiting https://prav.app/become-a-member. - To help you explain Prav, we’ve put together a poster attached which you can share with people. - We are currently in private beta testing. If you’re not ready to join as a member yet, you can still sign up to be a beta tester. This will give you early access to the app, where you can test out features and let us know what is or isn’t working. Register here: https://prav.app/beta-release-party. You can read a detailed writeup about our project here https://azadmaidan.in/t/prav-app-reclaiming-choice-of-service-providers/83. -- Ravi Dwivedi https://ravidwivedi.in
