Hi,

http://google-opensource.blogspot.co.nz/2012/02/google-summer-of-code-2012-is-on.html

Do we have people having time and willing to mentor this year?

Sorry, to touch a bit different subject

Oh, you know! ;) *IN* ;)

Seriously though… "in" for implementation.

No, I'm still not sure what you mean. Are you by any chance referring to project *ideas* from last year such as those at http://wiki.gimp.org/index.php/Hacking:GSoC/2011/Ideas?

Yes! Exactly!

My best!

Hello. I want to join GSoC 2012 with GIMP. I have C programming skills and some gtk experience.
I've cloned gimp git repo, but I've failed to compile it - in my system there's no up-to date GEGL package (Debian Wheezy). I want to fix some bugs for try change gimp code. Can anybody describe me how to compile gimp and fix, for example, this bug:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=658610 ?

Do you have a project in mind?

To build gimp you need to build all its dependencies not available from your distro. At this point its for most distros quite a long list, except for debian testing I belive. There you just need gimp-s accopmaning projects, babl and gegl. Please join #gimp IRC on gimpnet if you need further assistance with compiling. As to patches, it is your task to propose a solution and we will evaluate it.

Hello,

I'm not a developer, but here are some links and tips that may help you.

That sounds like a good start.

That's perfectly fine. I think most of the developers use Debian.

Here is a wikipage for new GIMP hackers:

http://wiki.gimp.org/index.php/Users:Beginner_Developer%27s_FAQ Perhaps it's an good idea to ask for an wiki account and adding everything you are missing from that page.

And here is an description, on how to build GIMP+GEGL+BABL: http://lightningismyname.blogspot.com/p/compiling-gimp.html
