Yes, I can tackle the GList refactoring project... but not for about a week (I've already got a list of tasks for when I return to France in a couple of days). > I think this makes a nice set.

It is a good set to start as the projects are quite different so it should give us some good feedback on what works. SVG 2 features is a huge project that needs to be broken down into smaller parts. SVG 2 compliant flowed text is a great start and has the advantage that there is a natural SVG 1.1 fallback. It will be an implementation challenge as one needs to understand the current text code. > Thanks everyone, > Bryce > > On Sat, Oct 11, 2014 at 01:31:10PM -0700, Bryce Harrington wrote: > > One of the capabilities the new funded development policy[0] gives us is > > the ability to specify some projects as immediately fundable, without > > needing to wait the proscribed 6 months. > > > > I would like to propose we select a few projects to pre-approve, in > > order to prime the pump, and to serve for testing out the process. > > > > When we started this whole effort, KK suggested a number of good > > projects.
