Revision as of 22:51, 3 March 2008

Camino needs a list of “good first bugs” and bugs/areas of improvement that are suitable for a focused, longer-term project, e.g., Google's Summer of Code, so that interested new contributors without any pet peeves can be pointed towards a concrete list.

For the latter set, we should also include Gecko-Mac platform bugs.

References: Sam's Roadmap, Camino Vote List (bugs with 5 or more votes), bugs marked helpwanted in Camino or relevant Core components

Bugs listed, especially in the “Good First Bugs” section, need to be audited by actual devs for suitability ;-)

Good First Bugs

Camino and Gecko-Mac Projects

Some of these projects were listed on the MozillaWiki 2006 Summer of Code, 2007 Summer of Code, or 2008 Summer of Code pages.

Camino

  • AppleScript support for reading page contents/page source (will require lots of digging into Gecko); Bug 374648, Bug 394582
  • Fix issues with XUL in the content area in Camino (make XUL webapps completely functional; at least menus, selects, and context menus don't work right now); bug 306252, bug 306613

Gecko-Mac

  • Revive/finish the Cocoa-Gecko accessibility work (see below for the original work).

Other Camino bugs

Historical Examples

Below are historical examples of things we've thought would make good projects.

Small Projects

Larger/Summer Projects

  • Support a11y in the content area (bridge Apple's accessibility APIs to the Mozilla accessibility APIs); bug 157209
    a little birdie tells us this should be happening RSN it's public now; hwaara is working on this :)
