I was thinkimg that we should put two additional comments there, but I wanted to run them by everyone:
- Applicants should consider fixing one current Inkscape bug and including
it's number in their application.
- Applicants are encouraged to post their proposals to the inkscape-devel
list for discussion before submitting them to Google.
Thoughts?
FWIW,
On http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/SOC_Application_Template linked to from http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Googles_Summer_Of_Code_2008
there is already the following under Tasks:
- Introduce yourself on the Inkscape developers mailing listhttp://lists.sourceforge.net/mailman/listinfo/inkscape-devel, and post your project ideas for feedback, before submitting your application
- Find and fix one or two bugs in the Inkscape bug trackerhttp://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=93438&atid=604306. Create and upload patches for the bugs, and make sure we know to connect those bug fixes and your GSoC application.
