<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi Alex,</div><div><br></div><div>If we bundle up enough bugs/features into a proposal, that could work, or we can propose something new that is needed that would take that amount of time to complete by the student. I don't have any proposals as I'm still new to the project and don't know the kinds of coding work that is needed, but maybe a project to improve xfce for mobiles, or one to do the initial work on a wayland port, or one to fully implement accessibility. Students can come up with their own ideas, though it would likely be difficult as they don't know the code, but ultimately the mentor(s) would have to approve.</div><div><br></div><div>Here is the GSoC ideas page from LibreOffice. <a href="https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/GSoC/Ideas">https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/GSoC/Ideas</a></div><br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div>Regards,</div><div>Yousuf<br></div></div></div></div><br></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, Feb 3, 2021 at 10:45 PM Alexander Schwinn <<a href="mailto:acs82@gmx.de">acs82@gmx.de</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div>Hi Yousuf,<br><br>if I get that correctly, a ~175 hour project is needed for the student. <br>So I assume we cannot just say: Pick some bugs and fix them ?<br>Not sure if we can offer such a thing.
