Hello,
GSoC is a great opportunity for students, and FOSS. One more time,
Apache Software Foundation is accepted as application. This allows
Apache OpenOffice (new OpenOffice.org name, since Oracle transfered
the trademark to the Apache Softare Foundation) participation, and we
can propose subjects.
Until something is accepted (starting me accepted as mentor on the
Apache side ;-) ), and to inform everybody, I did some proposals. As
GSoc mentor since 2006, I know well the thing and can mentor one or
two (maxi) students, whatever the choosen subject, but any help, or
even someone taking over one subject is possible and welcome.
Here are the subjects I proposed for GSoC2012 :
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMDEV-69 : Implement online
SVG Gallery in Apache OpenOffice
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMDEV-70 : Open and manage
Maxima sessions in Writer documents
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMDEV-71 : Implement the Image
rotation in Apache OpenOffice Writer, using Draw/Impress objects
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMDEV-72 : Implement Impress
OpenGL 3D transitions on Mac OS X and improve them (implement reverse
transition, according to backward / forward sense)
