Information for Students

This page is for collecting ideas for Google Code-in tasks. The tasks will be moved into Melange for you to claim when appropriate.

Adding a Proposal

When adding an idea to this section, please try to include the following data:

  • if the application is not widely known, a description of what it does and where its code lives
  • a brief explanation
  • the expected results
  • pre-requisites for working on your project if any
  • if applicable, links to more information or discussions
  • mailing list or IRC channel for your application/library/module
  • your name and email address for contact (if you're willing to be a mentor)
  • difficulty of the proposal - must be one of easy, medium, hard
  • the area the proposal is related to. This can be any of the following:
    • Code: Tasks related to writing or refactoring code
    • Documentation: Tasks related to creating/editing documents
    • Outreach: Tasks related to community management and outreach/marketing
    • Quality Assurance: Tasks related to testing and ensuring code is of high quality

If you are not a developer but have a good idea for a proposal, get in contact with relevant developers first.

Ideas

Amarok

conference poster

Area: Outreach
Description: Amarok needs a poster giving an overview of what Amarok is. It should be big, good-looking, easy to read and informative. http://amarok.kde.org/en/features can be taken as the basis for the poster but needs to be checked for correctness with the Amarok promo team.
Outcome: ready to print PDF of a shiny poster that will tell conference visitors more about Amarok.
Difficulty: medium
IRC: #amarok on freenode
Mailing List: amarok at kde org
Mentor: Lydia Pintscher (lydia at kde org)
