Hello inkscape-devel,
My name is Dmitry, I'm a student from Russia. I'm interested in
developing your project and participating in next Summer of Code (2009).
I want to know about ideas, which I can take part in. And I'm going to
make this work to be my master thesis at University.
As has been pointed out elsewhere you should probably start having a
look at the codebase and try implementing something or fixing a bug, or
whatever you're interested in.
However, what kind of master are you following? If it is visualization
related you may want to have a look at the flow charting discussion that
recently took place on the mailing list, or perhaps have a look at
technical drawing, etc. If you're more into signal processing and stuff
like that the filter effects could be interesting.
If you happen to be interested in programming from a more formal point
of view you might be able to do something cool with respect to static
checking or automated refactoring and stuff like that :) (There is no
shortage of weird and obscure bugs in Inkscape.)
