Pi crumbs tweeting

pi-crumbs-twitter.md

The @pi_crumbs twitter account makes formulaic tweets about Politeia proposal activity.

1. Each time a new proposal appears, tweet: "New proposal - [proposal title] [proposal link]"
2. Each time a (significant) edit is made to a proposal, tweet: "Proposal edited - [proposal title] [proposal link]"
3. Each time voting opens for a proposal, tweet: "Proposal voting open - [proposal title] [proposal link]"
4. Around 4-5 days into the voting period, tweet: "Proposal voting update - [proposal title], X% Approve, Y votes cast (% of pool). X hours remaining [proposal link]"
5. Each time voting for a proposal ends, tweet: "Proposal voting finished - [proposal title], X% Approve, Y votes cast (% of pool). [proposal link]"

For the voting update and final outcome tweets, should those have text with the status or an image grabbed from proposals site? I'm leaning towards an image.

It won't hurt, data visualization is nice. Optionally, you can ask design if they can give a sexier template for the numbers, like the one for the dev activity.

Will this be automated?

Anything that involves images would be harder to automate. So, I guess that's an argument in favor of just keeping it text-based.

Harder but possible. We have a growing number of people who would benefit from an automated insertion of text into a prepared image template. Might be worth an issue.
