GNOME Foundation is proud to announce the relaunch of the open source desktop integration bounty. The aim of the contest is to recruit new developers and to more tightly integrate the various projects that make up the desktop into a more coherent, and complete user experience.

This contest is sponsored & authored by Novell and is being administered by the GNOME Foundation

The contest consist of new set of small projects and also the unsolved old projects from the previous rounds.

Complete the hack, enter the contest, and collect the prize.

Unlike the round one and two, there is no time deadline. The completed project will go into the upcoming GNOME release, depending upon the freeze dates.

People participating in the contest will be hanging out on the #bounties channel on irc.gimp.org.

Re: Desktop Integration Bounty: Check-in 2 Cheque-out !!!!

The gaim developers are pretty nutsy about this sort of thing. I've done some non-bounty patches for gaim and it took near endless harassment to even get someone with commit privlidges to take a look at it. I'm pretty sure that the current gaim2btl.pl script doesn't work with the current gaim buddylist format and replacements have been submitted but that one has been ignored as well.
