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 acutal devs for suitability ;-)

Good First Bugs

N.B. This list is largely out-of-date, but the query below it is still good.

  • Drag-and-Drop Reorderable Tabs; Bug 160720 and Bug 318260 (delliott is doing this as part of the 2006 SoC)
    Listed on MozillaWiki Summer of Code page
  • Software update notification (non-AUS); bug 185436

    good first bug query (the query and the above list do not match yet)

Camino and Gecko-Mac Projects

Some of these projects were listed on the MozillaWiki 2006 Summer of Code page; see this blog entry.

  • Support a11y in the content area (bridge Apple's Carbon 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 :)
  • 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
  • etc.
