A bit wacky. Yeah, because we *really* want to be associated with Trillian ... we might as well call it "Zaphod's Beret in the Door" and combine the three crappiest software references we can think of.

How many projects do we want to take on? Last summer we had 5 mentors with about 3 students each. I think 3 was a good number. Who's interested in mentoring? -s.

I can mentor. I feel like 3 students was on the verge of being too many. I think I might be more comfortable with 2. But I guess it depends on the student and on the project. -Mark On Thu, 13 Apr 2006 15:50:11 -0700, Sean Egan wrote > How many projects do we want to take on?

Despite going 0 for 2 last year, I'll give it another whirl this year.

Who's > interested in mentoring? I'm interested in mentoring. As a project suggestion... Log Management (and Searching) I recently installed Beagle, a desktop search engine for GNOME. Among other things, they index Gaim logs. Our log searching currently has a number of flaws and users have asked for more features with "log management".

Additionally then, we could have a (possibly auto-loading?) plugin that would use libbeagle when it's available. In this way, users with Beagle would get faster searching and possibly more features. If you didn't have Beagle installed, we could fall back to searching the files ourselves. Richard |

Here's another idea I had: Write NSIS translation file support for intltool and convert our NSIS stuff to use that. In this way, our Windows installer translations could be managed as part of the .po files. This would make things easier to work with and would almost surely increase the number/quality of translations for our installer. The output of this project would need to be merged into intltool to be useful, so perhaps it's a better project for the intltool people. This would be useful to at least Gaim and GIMP, and also to other OSS apps that want to us NSIS on Windows. Richard |
