Re: [gnome-love] my participation



I read the guide, it's a great document.  I'd love to take a crack at
Memprof, I've been meaning to learn more about that app anyhow.  How do I
go about getting myself "officially" listed as doing this?

Cheers,

Hello. You can find the latest porting status here:

http://developer.gnome.org/dotplan/

under the module release engineering list. Also you will find the porting
guide also.

Some modules that need help, and would be simpler to port are
- ggv
- stripchart (would need to be compiled with the libgtop-GNOME-2-0-port
branch of libgtop)
- ghex
- memprof
- gnometris, xbill don't compile at all in gnome-games

The other thing really needed is to start porting applets. The applet API
has changed and I'm not too sure if it is complete, but the fish and clock
applets have been ported so you can look at those to see what changed.

You can send me patches for gnome-games or gnome-utils. For the other
modules, send patches to the maintainers. Feel free to ask any questions
that arise. Please indicate if you want to port a specific app so that more
than one person is not doing the same job.

Regards,
Kevin

I heard that the GnomeGames module is pretty

should I ask to get permission to start hacking?

I've pretty much reached the same conclusions as you (started out with
nautilus in mind, and have switched focus to biting off smaller chunks).

FWIW, it looks like gnome-games is starting to get some lovin', but
there's still work to do. same-gnome is marked as ported, though...

Take a look at this thread:
