People, Jim Grisanzio has kicked this off as a general request for participation from all the OpenSolaris projects: http://opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=7878&tstart=0
Anyone any desktop related ideas that would be suitable? Easy: Add Gnome Applet support as sample project in Netbeans - using Java Gnome bindings. Medium: Reduce memory consumption of Gtk+ hello world application. Hard: Modify Firefox's tabbing behaviour to allow it to run with reduced memory requirements, only hold images in memory for currently visible tab. Plenty of other optimisations that could be looked at to allow Firefox to run better ina memory constrained environment. Darren - I'm sure you have loads from the Linux gaps analysis and the System Tools project, so just fire ahead. Glynn - I assume the best thing here is for you to put up a Google Summer of Code page on the OpenSolaris Desktop home page, that Jim can point to. JR
