Re: [Gimp-developer] GSoC project query

One shouldn't necessarily write off the value of GSOC projects. For example, on-canvas text editing resulted from a GSOC project. The key to a useful project, I believe, is to have a limited and well-defined objective that does not require a deep understanding of major parts of the GIMP code base.

Re: [Gimp-developer] GSoC project query

Hi! For the record, our would-be intern had a job proposal, and therefore had to cancel his GSoC proposition. He even asked me if that is OK, and obviously I told him to do what's best for him! Anyway this was quite interesting to see a bit the possibilities for GSoC. Maybe next year, we'll try

I would be happy to see free-angled guides implemented. These can be handy in many situations for graphics designing. Something started a couple of years back https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=344109 On 6 March 2018 at 17:21, C R wrote: > [image: Boxbe]

Is it possible to task the student(s) with getting more GEGL integration? GIMP really needs that to speed up image processing and previews. I mean like REALLY REALLY needs that more than just about any new toys they can dream up. :) My 2p. -C On Mon, Mar 5, 2018 at 11:32 PM, Alexandre

[Gimp-developer] GSoC project query

Hello, I am Darshan Kadu Intern at FSF working on GNU GIMP as the task of the internship. I would like to contribute to the GNU GIMP as part of GSoC also, as GNU is participating too. But I don't see the page giving any description of the project. So does that means I cant contribute to GIMP
