GNOME has a number of open source bounties available for completion, ranging in difficulty and payout. The following project is worth $300:

Drag and Drop between Gnome and Firefox

Currently dragging and dropping back and forth between nautilus and firefox is very problematic. Bookmarks and copying actions are easily confused with surprising results.

What we’d like to see: Dragging a bookmark .desktop file to Firefox should open the url the bookmark file contains, not the bookmark file itself. Dragging an http: uri from firefox to the desktop should ask you if you prefer to download the file or make a bookmark point to the location. If a desktop bookmark is created the resulting .desktop file should specify a hyperlink icon (or possibly use the shortcut icon if the link points to an html page).

GNOME has a number of open source bounties available for completion, ranging in difficulty and payout. The following Calendar project is worth $2000:

Publish your calendar

Apple’s iCal has made “calendar sharing” popular. It’s a nice feature where any user can create a calendar of events and then publish it on a website, to share it with other users. Others can then “subscribe” their calendar application to that calendar file, and updates are automatically synced to their imported calendar whenever the master file changes. This makes it easy and convenient to share conference schedules, meeting times, club events, moving dates and times and so on.

Implement this calendar publishing feature in Evolution.
