Adam, I didn't realise that it so huge. My ambition is really big, because Shotwell will be my first open-source project that I contribute into the code.
I find "publish to Blogger (http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/2522)" and "Piwigo publishing (http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/2639)" interesting. In some of my applications I thought about publishing to such things as Blogger. Blogger is more known in Poland so I would like to work on it. I have forwarded the list of topics to my friends on University and maybe some of them will also work on Shotwell:) Cheers, Maciek Dnia 2010-10-05, wto o godzinie 13:43 -0700, Adam Dingle pisze: > Maciek, > > yes, it was nice to meet you at FOSDEM and I'm glad we've been able to > stay in touch after that. > > I'm glad you're interested in contributing to Shotwell.
