[Mageia-dev] artwork team, packager/dev assistance needed

Thu Mar 10 12:17:07 CET 2011

Hi there,
+
+artwork team is getting its hands on the bootstrap and installer
+processes; backgrounds/screensavers are incoming too; and it will need
+to do so on the graphic theme (ia ora so far).
+
+For now, the team needs assistance from packagers/developers on these modules:
+ - drakx (installer - perl/gtk skills/interest needed)
+ - theme (bootstrap, hibernate, shutdown, backgrounds, screensavers -
+plymouth skills/interest needed)
+
+to help to:
+ - better understand how graphics/animations are and can be used (and
+maybe, later, build quick mockup tools);
+ - replace them;
+ - cleanup (remove obsolete stuff, maybe break these modules into
+smaller, more to-the-point ones);
+ - document (help future artwork and dev people to get a better grasp
+on these modules).
+
+This is not for alpha2 (although a quick overview would be welcome)
+but for beta1 (and later of course); work would start at once anyway.
+
+Volunteers? if you are, please join mageia-artwork@ and/or #mageia-artwork.
+
+Thanks!
+
+Romain
