Hi Jade,

That's much appreciated! Welcome :) Here is the list of bugs and patches:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/page.cgi?id=patchreport.html&product=GIMP&patch-status=none

Note, however, that probably not all of them make sense, so indeed
it's best to hang around on IRC and ask someone like mitch and pippin
about that.
