Hi Benjamin. Regarding #4 (compositing effects), please note this thread: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-accessibility-list/2008-February/msg00066.html
We will soon be announcing a call for proposals for tasks such as this. Perhaps you should monitor the gnome-accessibility list for a couple of weeks. If you haven't already, we'd be happy to have you join the list. There is lots of work to be done. cheers, David Benjamin Gramlich wrote: > Greetings all, > > I am interested in applying to work on a project for Gnome during the > summer of code 2008, and I have a few ideas. > > Idea #1) Re-implement the panel-applet library/interface to depend on > DBUS. > > Idea #2) Migrate the panel to GIO/GVFS and DBUS. > > Idea #3) Develop a tutorial for GIO/GVFS. > > Idea #4) Create more compositing effects for metacity and develop a gui > configuration tool for the effects. > > Are these ideas any good?
