Google Summer of Code and Krita

We welcome students who want to work on Krita for Google Summer of Code. If you want to work on Krita, keep in mind that we would like you to stay with the project, also outside Summer of Code. Summer of Code isn't just a summer job with some mentoring added -- it's a way of becoming part of the team. We're also really underpowered at the moment, and we can only take on mentoring students who have a proven knowledge of C++ and Qt.

-If you haven't worked on Krita before, we want you to demonstrate your skill beforehand by fixing bugs or implementing some features. It's a good idea to start on that in January. Here is a list of pre-gsoc ideas:
-== Pre-GSOC ideas ==
-==== Idea: Integration with Web-Services ====
-* https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=274866
-==== Small Project: Wavelet Filter====
-==== Small Project: Virtual Second Tip of the Stylus ====
-==== Small Project: Advanced Composition Docker ====
-The Compostion docker needs some work to make it's use more fluent and useful to artists (comics,textures, regular export setups)
-*Compositions should be updatable and have managment options (renaming,ordering)
-*Workflow improvements for more easy use (selecting should not activate composition immediately)
-*Save locks and other layer settings (preserve alpha,collapse state of groups etc.)
-*Storage of exported image links
-*Selective export (selection options to export all or some compositions)
-*Snapshot preview of composition (optional)
-https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=322159
-== GSOC ideas ==
-We really like students who come up with their own project ideas. Check bugzilla for ideas, try Krita, work with it and imagine what would be a really cool thing to add.
-== Past GSOC projects ==
-===2014===
-===Mohit===
-* Cumulative Undo/Redo (needs modifications to tiles engine to be able to merge several undo revisions)
-* Dirty Brush-presets
-* Linked brush-presets
-===Somsubhra===
-*Animation plug-in.
