Gnome-Menu devs should prepare an application to Gnome for SoC 2008 #51

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Google is funding opensource work, and Gnome is part of it. Basically, you
get 5000$ to work during the summer on FOSS. Work on a document centric
desktop, and Gnome-menu could be done as part of this.

First,
10. Can a group apply for and work on a single proposal?

No, only an individual may work on a given project. Of course, students should 
feel
free to collaborate with others to accomplish their project goals.

Nevertheless this can be workarounded.

Second, I also wonder if a grad student is also  eligible as a student. They 
didn't
mention. I perhaps should ask them.

I'd say each developer which fit in the student category should apply with a 
project.
I guess you might split the document centric proposal in two, or have a generic
"Gnome Panel Improvements" application.
Then there's this 300+ lists of new features in Leopard for inspiration.(in the 
wiki
page on the Document Centric Desktop)
The question is what size should the project be. You're improving things at a so
rapid pace in Gnome Global Menu that it would be finished before the end of the 
summer.
You can either choose a monolithic project or a list of small project and
improvements to the Gnome Desktop. I don't know which is morel likely to be 
chosen

Updated Proposal with Appendix for an X11 implementation of IPC framework.

Thanks Pierre. 

I've already filed an application but there seems no way for others to view it. 
There
is a copy at the wiki page SOC2008Application.
