They're in!
Six students are going to work on KOffice this summer: Marc Pegon is going to create an awesome transformation tool for Krita. Adam Celarek is going to make selecting colors a snap. Pentalis is going to add a brush engine and impasto feature to Krita. Dmitry is going to make Krita multi-threaded (and his selection means the Krita project might very well have enough funds to help create a good manual and have it edited!). Cyril is going to build a mind-mapping application based on the KOffice libraries, validating our architecture and creating features useful for the existing apps all along, and finally, Benjamin is going make KPresenter swing by adding animations and improving the animation framework!
Yay for the students, yay for the mentors, yay for Google and especially yay for the KDE gsoc administrators, who have done and are doing an awesome job!
I've used the word at least twice, but I'm going to use it again: awesome! /software | permanent link | |
