Hello everyone! I would like to apply for the 2012 GNOME Outreach Program for Women internship, to help with GNOME documentation if possible. I write for a living and have some web design experience, and would be happy to help anywhere else that those skills are needed instead.
I started by talking to Cosimo Cecchi about contributing to GNOME Documents, but then when I started taking the JavaScript tutorials I noticed a lot of things that I felt could be improved. I have filed a bug report and included a patch, as the people on #docs suggested and helped with, and you can see it at https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=673338 For a project idea, I would like to learn how to write GNOME applications and create guides that explain what I've learned. In essence, I would like to take the current material at http://developer.gnome.org/gnome-devel-demos/unstable/ and clean it up, add more tutorials, and give new developers a clear path from having only basic knowledge of a programming language to being able to write complete applications (or even help out with GNOME development). I could do this for different languages if needed. I am especially interested in JavaScript, Vala, and Python, in roughly that order. I am open to other suggestions for things that need to be done, or projects that need attention. Thank you, Taryn
