Re: 3.10 Feature: Integrate Zimbra in GNOME
I would love to see Alfresco support if possible, although it can be supported using just plain ol webdav.

start contributing to GNOME
Hi everyone! I am Puja Singh,a third year undergraduate from Netaji Subhash Engineering College,Kolkata,India. I have been wondering for quite a few time to start contributing to GNOME, specificaly on projects like GCompris and Banshee. I already have gtk and the necessary libraries installed in my machine,and I have started to get familiar with the environment. I also joined the Gnome translation team(Hindi),a few weeks back,though I would really love to contribute technically. Here are few of my works,(not great) I have been working upon lately: 1. http://avenirnsec.com/ (the website of my college's annual tech fest) 2. my github profile ( https://github.com/Puja0708 ) 3. working on cloud computing for last 1.5 years,and have a paper published in a Springer journal ( LNISCT , conference by IDES and ACEEE ). Kindly consider me to be guided properly to be able to be a regular contributor to Gnome.

Re: libRSVG development
I contacted Hiroyuki Ikezoe and Christian Persch three weeks ago asking for the current development status of librsvg (I attached my mail, I hope it doesn't sound unkind?). I didn't receive any answer yet, though... Any ideas what could be done in this case? Regards Eduard Am 02.04.2013 21:04, schrieb Andre Klapper: Many projects are neither extremely active nor completely unmaintained. (In case of librsvg, maintainers did some hacking seven months ago.) It might be worth to contact maintainers explicitly (see https://git.gnome.org/browse/librsvg/tree/librsvg.doap ) and kindly ask for review of specific patches (overview of unreviewed patches at https://bugzilla.gnome.org/browse.cgi?product=librsvg ), or to issue a call for new blood (or invite active patch writers to co-maintainership) if there is no interest in maintainership anymore. ---BeginMessage--- Dear Hiroyuki, Dear Christian, I've got a question regarding librsvg development and you're listed as the project's maintainers. Basically I want to know if you're still planning to actively develop the library or if you're only providing basic support. Even If you don't plan to actively develop the library any more I want to ask if you're still willing to apply patches by other authors or if new developers have to be recruited in order to enhance the library further. The reason for my request is a patch I wrote myself and which I had submitted to Bugzilla over four months ago (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=605875#c9) but for which I never got a reply. It seems there are also other patches currently waiting for review. Also the GIT repository's log is a little quiet. The last commit that wasn't some kind of build fix but really changed librsvg's functionality seems to be older than a year. Just to be clear: This isn't some sort of criticism. I'm just curious what the current state of the project is and if it makes sense if I put additional effort in creating patches for problems that affect me most in the future. The reason for my personal interest in librsvg development is that I'm quite active on Wikimedia Commons and other Wikimedia projects and Wikimedia's SVG renderer of choice is currently librsvg. Therefore one often has to work around specific renderer bugs (Wikimedia has a list on their own, too: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/buglist.cgi?order=Importancecomponent=SVG%20renderingproduct=Wikimedia). I'm looking forward to your answer and would be glad if it is positive.

Re: gnome 3.8.1 files
Hello, I suggest you use jhbuild to compile GNOME 3.8 but what is your level of expertise with compiling software? Are you beginner? Why do you need GNOME 3.8? What distribution are you using right now? if you are using Ubuntu, there's a PPA (containing ready to install binaries of deb format) for GNOME 3.8 I think. as GNOME 3.8 has many dependencies which are not possible to get singularly manually.

Re: start contributing to GNOME
Hello, Puja How would you like to contribute to GNOME? These are a few options :) You can contribute to GNOME in many ways (and one of the ways is translation, as you have already started doing so): coding, documentation, art work, bug triaging, user experience research and even marketing! I am a recent intern from the GNOME Outreach Program for Women OPW) and I contribute to GNOME Documentation. Please take a look at https://live.gnome.org/DocumentationProject/Tasks/ For coding, there are many GNOME projects that need bug fixing and you can find easy bugs to solve if you search Bugzilla (bugzilla.gnome.org) with keyword gnome-love: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=keywords%3Agnome-love gnome-love indicates that it's a relatively easy bug to solve and assistance will provided by the community in helping you make your contribution. Have you applied for GSoC or OPW? At the point of writing this am sorry to say that the deadline for both these programs has passed but do consider preparing yourself to apply in the next round. http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/homepage/google/gsoc2013 https://live.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen For bug triaging, consider reading https://live.gnome.org/Bugsquad It would be of great help to the community if you can correctly assign bugs their keywords and status as I have done here: https://live.gnome.org/sindhus/BugsTriaging Would you like more help on where to start in any of the following? Do ping anybody on: irc.gimp.net network on the channels: #docs for documentation related matters #bugsquad for bug triaging help You can find out the IRC channel for any GNOME project by simply searching for the project's wiki page on live.gnome.org For example: http://live.gnome.org/Gitg is the wiki page for the GNOME application Gitg and the developers are available for help on #gitg Also consider subscribing to mailing list of the project you are interested in contributing to. You can find all public mailing lists for GNOME projects here: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo I hope this email has been clear in giving you a concise idea on how to take your first step towards contributing to the GNOME community :) That said this mailing list (desktop-devel) is *not* the forum for asking for 'how-to contribute' help. This mailing list is intended for queries related to GNOME Desktop development. Please post queries for help in relevant channels to receive replies that benefit you :) Thanks. -Sindhu On Fri, Apr 19, 2013 at 3:46 PM, Puja Singh singh.puja.07...@gmail.comwrote: Hi everyone!

Re: gnome 3.8.1 files
Hello a single deb or rpm file does not make any sense. Packaging Gnome is a lot of work. Consider joining others packaging it.

Hi, If you just want to install, then some distributions already offer 3.8.1 See http://www.gnome.org/getting-gnome/ to get the info concerning the distributions you're interested in. This list is about the development of GNOME, you will find more help on https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list Or do yo mean packaging GNOME for others? in such case you would have to refer to your distribution to see its process Regards Pierre-Yves ___ desktop-devel-list mailing list desktop-devel-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list

First mockup of new individual button mapping panel: http://firszt.eu/wacom-icons/mockup_of_wacom__button_mapping_panel.png Roadmap: 1. Change existing panel to simple button list + add a new panel activated after clicking on a button (mockup) I tend to dislike vertical tabs but I can see how having a dedicated panel per button is useful if we want to show that many options. I'm trying something different now - tablet layout + click on button triggers single button mapping window. 2. First version would include only existing or already coded features - single keystroke, on screen help, monitor switch, OLED labels matching mapping. The last one is waiting for review on bugzilla. I understand that the label/icon's only purpose would be to show up the on screen help, is that right? No, it's mainly for OLED screens. 3. Add option to edit label i.e. to show Save instead of Ctrl-S on tablet 4. Add option to select an icon instead of label. I can see how having a label might be good (especially if we had those keystrokes sequences), not so much for the icons though. I.e. Pen icon instead of P for gimp, window + arrow icon instead of Alt+Tab and so on. 5. Implement keystroke sequences. I can also see how this might be useful for some users but I am sure the design folks aren't going to like it as it might be too complicated for other users. Perhaps choosing a file/script to be run could replace the necessity of implementing the keystroke sequences ourselves but I'm sure the design team will find it equally funny. Maybe all these and other advanced features should belong in a 3rd party app for power users, outside of g-c-c. That's far away from my current coding experience, but the feature is an absolute life saver in my everyday work (windows unfortunately) BTW, do you know we're thinking of implementing per-app bindings? I'm waiting on the design team to tell me how advanced it should/could be so I implement it: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=670907 I wasn't aware of that, but I saw something similar in wacom settings mockups.
