      Make videos of yourself signing individual words

      At the moment just concentrating on ASL, but videos of signs for individual words (if you can make a themed bundle like "countries of the world" even better!) would be really useful. If the sign doesn't involve motion, a photo works too.

      Submit ideas for lessons

      Open a bug report at https://bugs.launchpad.net/gally-asl with a topic for which you think there should be a lesson in ASL (ex: "colors", "countries")

      Make an icon

      There's no icon for Gally for using in Applications menus, on the project homepage, and in the window's titlebar. Anyone with graphics skills up for it? I was thinking a hand making some sign would be good. https://bugs.launchpad.net/gally/+bug/589463

      Translate lessons into your language

      Go to https://code.launchpad.net/~gally-asl-contrib/gally-asl/trunk and branch trunk (follow directions), then edit the .lang files, adding translations into your own language anywhere you see something with lang="en" -- Don't forget to add yourself to the contributors list at the top!

      When you're done, run "bzr push lp:~FOO/gally-asl/BAR && bzr lp-open" where FOO is your Launchpad username and BAR is your language's abbreviation. When the Launchpad webpage opens up, click "Propose for merging" and put "~gally-asl-contrib/gally-asl/trunk" in the Target Branch box.

      • Tip:

        Discuss documentation, testing, webmastering, and/or publicity.

        Include URLs if relevant (we'll automatically linkify them).

      • Example:

        We need people to download version 0.4.5 and make sure the frobulator still frobulates correctly.

  • Q: What's a good bug for a newcomer to tackle?

    • [X]

      • Tip:

        Many projects have good small tasks that can teach newcomers how the project works. Now's your chance to share one of them!

        Include URLs if relevant (we'll automatically linkify them).

      • Example:

        Someone could improve the photo upload dialog box so that it lets you resize the photo before sending it to the web.

  • Q: What is a bug or issue with Gally that you've been putting off, neglecting, or just plain avoiding?

    • [X]

      • Examples:

        I don't know how to get started with internationalizing my app.

        Bug 392 about printing was filed five years ago, and I don't even know if printing still works.

        I want help from a C coder writing a Maildir patch for Alpine.

      • Note:

        If this issue was formally filed on the web, be sure to include the URL.
