Hi Andre,

Always glad to see more developers step up.

For UI work, there are a few different areas. Probably the best thing to do would be to get on the chat room sometime and talk with people in there. We have a Jabber and IRC presence, listed in the contact info on the main website.

Bulia tends to be doing a lot more of the tool work lately. I've been working on misc UI issues, color calibration and a few other things.

One aspect that I focus on is the structure of the internals and abstract architecture, so if you are interested in the "refitting" to gtkmm that would be one place to start.

I'm usually in the chat evenings and nights Pacific Time, but others are around throughout the day (we have a pretty good spread of developers around the globe).
