Should we commit Developer resources to collaboratively build Twitter Praise with the TEC?

This proposal is to develop an open-source module fitting on top of Praise to allow twitter users to dish praise to one another and add it into a given community’s praise database. You can read the original proposal in the TEC forum here - https://forum.tecommons.org/t/engineering-praise-for-twitter/1215

The Ask

The TEC Rewards WG is requesting 90 hours of monthly developer resources from Giveth for ~3 months, the time we believe it will take to develop and launch an MVP Twitter Praise Bot for both Giveth and the TEC communities.

This is a collaborative proposal and TEC Rewards WG will provide project managment and QA testing.

Giveth has an army of all-star devs, a few of which have already worked on Praise and are familiar with how it works under the hood. I’ve also personally been working with these same devs for the last ~2.5 years and believe that they are the right people for the job!

Benefits to Giveth

The primary idea is to register, acknowledge and reward a more inclusive demographic of people doing things that Giveth loves! This is an opportunity to have an excellent outreach tool that could be used by your community and communications teams.

Allowing Praise to be dished on Twitter has the potential to drive more eyes onto Giveth and the work it does and also help onboard twitter users onto the Giveth platform and community.

Lastly, this can also help distribute GIV rewards in a more interesting manner, allowing more exposure of praise outside of Giveth contributors, the more hands we get GIV into, the more opportunity there is for people to discover all that goodness in the GIVeconomy.
