Hi,
as KDE is a mentoring organization for the Google Summer of Code 2008
(see
http://code.google.com/soc/2008/ ) it would be
great if we get some nice projects related to digikam.
If you are a student interested in a paid summer internship with
Google, mentored by members of the digiKam team, please get
in contact with us now.
Important: Application deadline: April 7 2008
Possible projects are:
1/ "Advanced image resize for the digikam editor"
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=149485 ==> KDE3 and KDE4
2/ "New High Dynamic Range (HDR) plugin"
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=144593 This could involve
- contrast masking
- HDR generation and tone-mapping (but we have qtpfsgui for that ...!)
- enfuse (see the hugin project,
http://wiki.panotools.org/Enfuse)
==> KDE3 and KDE4
3/ KROSS integration for digikam 0.10:
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=146866 This would be very powerful as it allows to script
digikam via python, ruby etc.
(For example realized for krita).
==> KDE4 only
4/
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=146288 "Face detection / recognition for digikam"
==> KDE3 and KDE4
Note that it is not possible to mentor all projects
at the same time, so in case of many applicants
it might be necessary to do a selection.
First steps:
a) you should join the digikam-devel mailing list
b) choose a project which interests you. Of course
you can extend any of the projects listed above, or
even propose a new one
(and tell us about it on the mailing list).
c) install the current version from svn
d) optionally: to demonstrate your coding skills:
fix any of pending bugs by providing a patch in the bug-tracker ;-)
e) Before submitting your proposal you need contact
us to discuss all relevant details.
Best,
The digiKam Team
