Bryce,
You must have missed my email or it didn't get through (unfortunately it wasn't sent to the board list).
Sorry, the email did get through to me, but I missed it since I was looking only at board emails.
Krzysztof will be doing Boolean operations and stroking for his master thesis.
I also suggested adding:
Remove all use of GList and GSList.
Clean up all unnecessary castings in C++ classes. Remove unnecessary
use of "this". Etc.
These topics are more of the "janitorial" task category where it might be hard to get someone to voluntarily do them. (But then they may not generate as many donations.)
Yes, I agree, janitorial tasks are most important.
Given this change, I'd like to amend my original vote:
+1 Blur Box +1 Rm GList/GSList refactoring

Anyone else want to propose any of the other things listed on http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Projects ?
If not, we'll vote on this list.
Ok, it's been a couple weeks, so let's vote.
For this, let's everyone have two votes. You can cast +1 for two different items, or +2 once for one item. The top two will become pre-approved.
A few things I would suggest to keep in mind:
Just because it's pre-approved doesn't necessarily mean it will be funded. It just makes it available as an idea someone could fund via a separate fundraiser. We're just priming the pump here.
The first funded project will be serving as a proof of concept, so we something that's going to successful. So, pick things that are well-defined, smaller in scope, and uncontroversial design-wise.
To avoid any possibility for conflict of interests, I think no board members should apply for pre-approved projects. So if there's something in the list you may want to work on, don't vote for it.
For the top two projects, we're still going to need to flesh out the project definition, acceptance criteria, etc. So we'll need volunteers to write that up, before we can publicize it.

One of the capabilities the new funded development policy[0] gives us is the ability to specify some projects as immediately fundable, without needing to wait the proscribed 6 months.
I would like to propose we select a few projects to pre-approve, in order to prime the pump, and to serve for testing out the process.
When we started this whole effort, KK suggested a number of good projects. These perhaps need a bit more elaboration but give something to select from.
Would you guys please look through this list for 2-3 projects you think would make good initial fundable projects? Nominate ones that are well-contained and straightforward - things that would make appropriate GSoC projects for example. Please feel free to expound on the project definitions.

I'll collect everyone's nominations into a list, and we'll vote on them. Projects that get >50% vote will be made pre-approved.
