RFC: Multimonitor wallpaper submission and download for Nuancier [GSoC]
by Parth Panchal 28 Mar '15

28 Mar '15

Hi, I'm Parth[1]. Nuancier is a Python Flask voting application for the supplementary wallpapers included in Fedora releases. My project aims to implement mainly two features that let users with multi monitor setup to take advantage of these high resolution wallpapers such that they can set different parts of wallpaper on different monitors ( with any combination of different or same resolution) without breaking its continuity. My design doesn't even requires any manual curation of the wallpapers. Upload feature will also be enhanced to support uploading already split images of a wallpaper. I've submitted my proposal on google-melange[2] & Fedora wiki[3] and I really look forward to improve my implementation based on your feedback and suggestions in order to get accepted.

GSOC 2015 Proposal to Glitter Gallery Improvements
by Nikunj Gupta 28 Mar '15

28 Mar '15

Hello l, I am Nikunj Gupta from India. I am applying for Glitter Galllery Improvements project at Fedora Project in this year's GSOC. GlitterGallery is GitHub for designers - being developed by and for the Fedora design team, but hoping to be useful to all designers. It's a web app based on Ruby on Rails that allows designers and artists to create, share, and collaborate, backed by Git for version control. Here's the link to my proposal: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/GSOC_2015/Student_Application_mecyborg Thanks -- *"Action is the foundational key to all success"* Nikunj Gupta | Gizmantra <http://gizmantra.com> | Movierdo <http://movierdo.com> B.

GSoC 2015 Application for the project "Multimonitor wallpaper submission and download for Nuancier"
by hrudaya sahoo 27 Mar '15

27 Mar '15

Hello everyone, I want to contribute to the above project as part of GSoC 2015. The following is the abstract of the project: "In every release of Fedora, a set of supplemental wallpapers that are submitted by the users are included. To decide which wallpapers should be included in the release, an “election” is conducted through the web app “Nuancier” that allows users to vote on their choice of the wallpaper(s). The aim of this project is to extend Nuancier to provide facilities so that people who are using a multi monitor setup will be able to submit and download wallpapers from Nuancier." The following are the reasons why I want to do this project: 1. I actually like the idea of the project. Frankly speaking, I have very limited experience with multi monitor setups. So, getting to know the pros and cons of a multi monitor setup and writing code for the same will be a very good experience for me. 2. Since I am new to the open source community and because I like this concept, I want to develop my understanding of the open source community better. For this, I have created the application on the Fedora Wiki Page. Here's the link for the same: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/GSOC_2015/Student_Application_Pythonuser Thanking you, -- *Hrudaya Ranjan Sahoo* 3rd year B. Tech. student Indian Institute of Technology, Mandi (IIT Mandi) Himachal Pradesh, India

by harshad shirwadkar 27 Mar '15

27 Mar '15

Hello All, Please find my application for adding content-storage-mode for BTRFS file system at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/GSOC_2015/Student_Application_harshadshirwad… . Here is a better formatted version of the same proposal: http://harshadjs.github.io/2015/03/27/Fedora-BTRFS-Content-Storage-Mode/ The project aims at allowing indexing BTRFS extents by hash of the content they carry. This would result in enhancement of performance for certain applications such as Internet Content Caches. Thanks, Harshad.

[GSoC 2015] My application to improve Glitter Gallery
by Ahmed Fathy Hussein 27 Mar '15

27 Mar '15

Hello, My name is Ahmed AbouElhamayed. I'm applying this year to work on improving and extending Glitter Gallery. If you don't know what that is, Glitter Gallery is a web app that is similar to Github but made for designers to replace old the way of sharing and collaborating on designs(mailing lists). This is a trial to help ease designers work so that they can produce even cooler designs and everyone would be happy. I'm proposing to get Glitter Gallery ready for use by implementing new features and improving existing ones. You can see my student application here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/GSOC_2015/Student_Application_aaboouelhamayed Thanks, Ahmed

27 Mar '15

Hi, I am Aditya Prakash. I am working on GlitterGallery <https://github.com/glittergallery/GlitterGallery>. I don't have to tell you for you to know that collaboration tool for designers suck. Enter GG(GlitterGallery), with options to share your work publicly and collaborate with others. Backed with git and integration with sparkleshare, on GG you will be able to host your local as well as online repos. It requires work on its commenting system, view of the history and projects' landing page, integration of sparkleshare and inkscape, adding tags to projects and issues etc. Here is my application: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/GSOC_2015/Student_Application_sonalkr132 Thank you!
