I would be interested in doing work on seahorse, I available to work on seahorse once I graduate in May, until September.
While I have not yet contributed any code to seahorse, I've contributed several patches to gnome-shell. Recently, I have begun exploring the seahorse codebase to fix some bugs, and at the present I'm working on adding an app menu. As a new developer to seahorse, mentorship would be greatly helpful. At this time, I cannot say for sure what the estimated workload is needed for fixing #550736. Perhaps Stef could help in this matter.
