Release 0.4 - Winforms and Telescope part 2

Winforms So last time I talked about my first contribution to Winforms writing unit tests for a few classes, continuing working on the issue I've picked , and that ended up evolving a bit. What happened with the PR ? Some fixes were requested by the Winforms team , which were made by me but things got rather complex when I found out that the testing framework was unable to access some classes and methods required to test the classes to which I was writing the unit tests. After facing the problem mentioned above with access to classes within the Winforms project I made an extensive research about the frameworks and asked the expert team for help on how to proceed with it, and thankfully the team was super supportive and gave me a lot of information on how to go around this problem. After receiving this information I look forward to fix my tests and submit an updated PR to the project and keep working on the issue! My PR for R0.4 For my release 0.4 I wrote unit tests

Release 0.3 - My contributions with Telescope and .NET Winforms

Telescope As part of our open source class our classmates are all working to modernize a system that is very important to Seneca's open source community, where their blogs and content are all concentrated into a single page where everyone at CDOT can "gather" to see what's going on. My contribution for Telescope was to create a new logo for it, so I tried to get as most creative as I could while adding purpose to it, so for that I started with CDOT's logo, since as part of CDOT's software portfolio, Telescope should have a relatable brand to it, so its main feature is Seneca's CDOT logo with a few additions. To the logo I added the Image of the Hubble telescope. One could ask, ok why the Hubble and what does it have to do with a tool that, in a nutshell, tracks blogs feeds and gathers the posts in an easy to read place? Well, since Telescope is built under the Open Source Philosophy I needed something that would relate to it and had everything to do
