I sure would be interested on their take about brush(set) organization, for example. Or, assuming they actually do lab testing, what they observe that new users struggle with. My condition would be that the students have access to a tablet, and some passion (not just doing it to pass the course). >From what I see on IRC I expect at least SeanJM and you, Jon, would be willing to share the task of responding, so we might get below 48 hours, a number which I alone would never promise :-) So it's okay with me. If we apply we should write a few sentences about the status, for which usecases MyPaint is already quite good, and for which it could become better. Add some links to interesting branches (at least portnov's), pick one or two GUI brainstorms and discussions threads / bugreports to give them a sample. I hope everyone realizes that with this we are offering to mentor their students just as much as they offer to do some work for the project. We could also ask Peter Sikking for usability advice instead, he has done good work for both GIMP and Krita. I expect his condition would be that we actually will work on the problems we discuss with him. (I prefer to work on whatever catches my interest today.) -- Martin Renold _______________________________________________ Mypaint-discuss mailing list Mypaint-discuss@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/mypaint-discuss
