Hi again,
I have revised my possible feature enhancements to the following after the
reading the blog. :)
Using pictures as screen-saver(#1112)
Captions in Sideshows(#1592)
Sideshow music(#1557)
Video Playback inside Shotwell(#2820)
I think I have chosen features which have some common base.
I also wrote a basic code which implements a music playback in Shotwell and
attached the patch files to the ticket tracker.( I am not sure how to submit a
bug patch in Trac ).
Its pretty basic, but I just want to make sure, the basics is write before
implementing the whole thing.
I have some doubts about the settings and how it is implemented.
A UI mockup( even a hand-drawn) would point me in the right direction.
Also I was wondering, if I could get in contact with any one of the main
developers via IRC or IM,since a chat would be better for communication than a
mailing list.
Regards,
Sriram
