Hi everyone working with NewPipe,
first things first: Sorry to write this here as this does not belong here. It might be the best way to reach out to you all.
As you might have noticed there is currently a global pandemic going on, and different countries are trying to implement a corona tracing app. Germany introduced its tracing app this Tuesday, and apparently we are already at about 30% coverage. The German app uses the Google/Apple for exchanging bluetooth advertisements, and although the documentation for the protocol is open there is no open implementation for it available right now.
So @poschi3 and me reached out and see how hard it would be to implement this protocol our selfs. We found out its not to hard and so CoraLibre and the CoraLibre-android-sdk where born.
You can read all about CoraLibre in this issue.
However as I am (as always) a little short in time, and don't have knowledge about everything that is going on here I am reaching out to you guys to ask you for help. When you are living in germany or are interested, and want to help with this app please come and do so. We currently need people in many different areas like setting up a website, develop the sdk it self, take care about the documentation, do community management or work on design an cooperate identity.
I liked the idea from the beginning as I saw your ticket in the Corona Warn-App repo. I am sorry, because I cannot help you. I can barely find time to review PRs (or even finish my own ones) and thus don't have time to dive into another project.
Keep going :heart: I really appreciate an open implementation of the APIs and thus the ability to install the app on my phone.
Thats ok I hope we can find more people to help.
If one want to help, you can see here, what to do, or open an issue and tell your suggestion what you could do :)
