<div class="gmail_quote">Hi,<br><br>I have sent an email before but I didn't introduce myself, so I'll start with that.<br><br>I am a forth year student of Computer Science at University of Campinas (<a href="http://www.unicamp.br/unicamp/en" target="_blank">Unicamp</a>).<br>
I have learned and developed in C in my first two years of college, including an internship with embedded systems.<br><br>Some students from Unicamp have submited applications in GSoC past 3 years and they motivate us to come in the universe of free software that I participate since 2007 as an user when I removed windows from my computer.<br>
As a free software developer, I am currently working on a project called TelEduc and it is about e-learning. I use mostly php, javascript and ajax in this project.<br><br>About Tux4kids project, I have started studying SDL a bit before entering the mailist in order to understand well the code of both tuxtype and tuxmath, wich are the projects that i'm interested.<br>
<br>I studied a bit of SVG to understand the problem of the time consumption at the startup in tuxmath and I enjoyed the idea of using threads as a solution but I'm still studying how is the best way to do it whereas we should extend the use of SVG for all <span>graphical elements.<br>
I wonder if there is a mentor for this project, with solid ideas to discuss with me and define a scope of this application to apply in 3 months.<br>In my first email about SVG, I got no anwser... this still a valid idea ?<br>
</span><br>About a this new idea that I had, I would like to know what you think about it to the project and also if it applies to GSoC.<br><br>While I was playing tuxtype, I found really cool the background images changing during the game but I believe that these images could have some connection with the type of library is being used to play.<br>
For example, lets syas that the teacher have created an library (words) about mammals. He might like that as wallpaper, mammals appear instead of landscapes.<br><br>My idea would be to change the 'edit words list' to an 'edit library', with a good interface for the creation of libraries including adding images to use as background when that library is selected.<br>
<br>Finally, I would like to know where should I send some patches that i have written for both tuxtype and tuxmath. The Sourceforge seems a bit abandoned and I didn't found in Alioth a place to send them.<br><br>Regards,<br clear="all">
