GTG

"Hiring" & Spring hackathon (backends)

Written for GTG by Izidor MatuĊĦov on 2012-03-05

I have several announcements to make. Firstly, we are looking for a new Fedora package maintainer for GTG. According to [1], there is nobody who will package GTG for Fedora. Do you want to install GTG as a standard package on Fedora? Just say hello to us or Fedora community!

We are still looking for a communication manager. You would update GTG's blog about the new features, take screenshots, communicate with developers and users. If you want to contribute to GTG but you don't know or don't want to program, it's ideal for you! Tell us if you are interested.

The next thing I would like to announce is Spring hackathon! After successful Fall hackathon [2], I would like to ask you to take a part on the next one. The goal will be to write many new backends and have fun by contributing to GTG. You are welcome if you can code or you want to cheer others up. Please, invite your friends who would like to contribute to GTG.

The procedure is the same as the last time. Fill doodle [3] with your name and launchpad nick and the list of days you are available. The hackathon should be on a weekend day in April or May -- it is enough time for you to don't have any other plans for the date of hackathon. Doodle will be open until next Monday, 2012-03-12 and afterwards announced the date of hackathon. Hackathon will take place on our IRC channel (#gtg at GimpNET)
