Hi Alaa.
As a potential mentor I'm glad to know we can join forces!
I want to improve the proposal.
The mayor thing is about use straight and curved shapes to split. It have similar effort (except the part to exclude unwanted/unapplicable paths) and give more power to it.
Also in the proposal I define some "ways to" and think we need to define some of them lately, we also have the great help of team_ux[1] to help on decissions.
As you can see I`m not english native, hope is not a problem.
Looking forward you proposal is acepted.

Hello everyone!
I'm so excited to introduce myself and interact with the community here and hopefully be a lively contributor to inkscape!
First things first, who am I and why do I want to apply? I'm a communication and information engineering undergraduate student in Zewail City, Egypt. I also happen to be a freelance artist who likes to explore new art programs along the way. I'm in my 3rd year in engineering, and I have taken a strong Object-Oriented programming course in C++ last year and data structures and algorithms course this year. The final project for the C++ course was to add features to a paint program! It was an incredibly beneficial and fun experience. Some of the features were resizing, creating new shapes, redoing, undoing, and other similar tasks. Whenever I'm not learning anything new (through online courses or university courses), I invest time to enhance my artistic skills. I was skimming through the projects available to apply for in GSoC and I found inkscape. I was immediately hooked. It's perfect in every possible way! I'm already familiar with manipulating objects in GUIs, I have a strong passion for art, I'm experienced enough to know what the user would want to see available while drawing and I'm skilled in coding!
What have I accomplished so far from the tasks listed in the GSoC website? I have already built and run the project, and I have chosen to work on P3. slice Items. I believe I have what it takes to contribute. I'm currently creating some artworks to upload on the website and formulating a rigid timeline to follow for the project I chose.
Inquiries:
Regarding the submission of a drawing I have made task, I was wondering where exactly should I submit it. Would it be enough to just upload it on my inkscape profile and attach the link to my application?
Also, where should I submit my inkscape application exactly?
Thank you for your time. _______________________________________________ Inkscape-devel mailing list Inkscape-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/inkscape-devel
