Hi,

Do we have people having time and willing to mentor this year?

Hello. I want to join GSoC 2012 with GIMP. I have C programming skills and
some gtk experience.
I've cloned gimp git repo, but I've failed to compile it - in my system
there's no up-to date GEGL package (Debian Wheezy). I want to fix some bugs
for try change gimp code. Can anybody describe me how to compile gimp and
fix, for example, this bug:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=658610 ?

Do you have a project in mind?

To build gimp you need to build all its dependencies not available
from your distro. At this point its for most distros quite a long
list, except for debian testing I belive. There you just need gimp-s
accopmaning projects, babl and gegl. Please join #gimp IRC on gimpnet
if you need further assistance with compiling. As to patches, it is
your task to propose a solution and we will evaluate it.

Hello,

I'm not a developer, but here are some links and tips that may help you.

That sounds like a good start.

That's perfectly fine. I think most of the developers use Debian.

Here is a wikipage for new GIMP hackers:

http://wiki.gimp.org/index.php/Users:Beginner_Developer%27s_FAQ
Perhaps it's an good idea to ask for an wiki account and adding
everything you are missing from that page.

And here is an description, on how to build GIMP+GEGL+BABL:
