For my bug fix, I decided to take a couple friends’ of mine’s project, give it a proper open source license, and help fix a few of the listed connections.

What is SceneMaps

SceneMaps is a project to map out the various connections between local underground music scenes, and tie them together with various shared band members and shows they have played together.

Why I picked it

I’m very much involved in the local rochester music scene, so I found the concept to be interesting.

The Issue:

The repo’s list of bands was not up to date, and the entire repo did not have any licenses. That was mostly what I could do the fastest while I read through the code and got an idea of what future way I could contribute. It was relatively simple, I just updated whatever pieces of information I already knew, searched through the dependencies and tech that it used to see if there were any conflicting licenses with the one we agreed on (which was the Hippocratic License), and then pushed the license to the repo. As for updating things, They walked me through how to do it nd I pushed those changes on their computer. I got these accepted easily, it’s only a team of 3 people so I was able to just easily get commit access.
