Hello, I'm responding about the advertisement "Plans for 2.8 and beyond" to help the team to freely code gimp. Here is a little resume : Background: *student in 4th year of mathematics in belgium. *I could fellow some lessons in computer science : Operating systems, data storage stuctures, and currently some computer graphics.. *external student in drawing. (aka already a good gimp & mypaint user) *My current computer runs on a x86-64 Archlinux with Xmonad as window manager. *Computer langagues: --->"Native speaker" : C, java (6) and Oz (An erlang-syntax like functional language), shells --->Good skill: C++, haskell --->Rarely used: Python, php, erlang I never used any other language What I'm stong at: * Learning. * Avoid ugly spaghetti-like code. What I'm weak at: * Not very well rolled up about git, but I know well svn. * Bug fixes organisation Direct issue : I manage at home to clone the git repos and to eventually build it. But I cannot "$git pull " anymore with the university wireless... it says : git.gnome.org[0: 209.132.180.173]: errno=Connection timed out fatal: unable to connect a socket (Connection timed out) I do not dare to try to code a bugfix if I cannot update the source code. Someone might already fix the one i picked ! I have no idea what could possibly wrong... (Moreover, I couldn't find any documentation about the general stucture of the gimp architecture, like blender have since a few mounths. Is there some data about this somewhere on the web ?) Many thanks for any help, Brack _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
