Sympa internship

Here you will find all the stuff about my six weeks internship on Sympa:

• My diary: I've written what I did week for week during my internship.

• Documentation:

  • Apache James: I've decided to write some documentation about Apache James, because I used it for playground for testing JMAP.

  • JMAP: a new protocol to replace IMAP. Very interesting. I decided to write a small documentation about how to authenticate.

• Report: my report I needed to write for the university.

Compiled versions

Build requirements

To build all the pdf files you will need the following dependencies installed on your machine :

• pandoc: used here to convert all the Markdown files to pdf

• texlive-lang-french: support for the french langage

• xelatex: installable on Debian-based distributions with sudo apt install texlive-xetex (used for compiling the cover page from tex->pdf)

To build all pdf files, just run make, make all or make pdf.

If you only want to build a specific file:

• make diary: generate the file diary.pdf which contains my diary.
• make james: generate the file doc_james.pdf wich contains the documentation I've written for Apache James.
• make jmap: generate the file doc_jmap.pdf which contains the documentation I've written for the authentication part for JMAP.
• make report: generate the file report.pdf which contains my report.

To conclude

I hope you enjoyed my work! Feel free to correct if you see some typos or errors. This intership made me discover the open source world, and working with such a great community is something very cool! I'm happy to be part of the community from now 😄
