These are genereal concepts and areas of opportunity from which individual GCI2012 tasks can be developed and submitted.

The GCI categories are:

Code
Tasks related to writing or refactoring code
Documentation/Training
Tasks related to creating/editing documents and helping others learn more


Outreach/Research
Tasks related to community management, outreach/marketing, or studying problems and recommending solutions
Quality Assurance
Tasks related to testing and ensuring code is of high quality.
User Interface
Tasks related to user experience research or user interface design and interaction


1) Activity Rescue.

There are abandoned actvitites tha need to be ported to gtk3 or generally resuscitated. For example, some have been left behind on dev.l.o and not migrated to Sugar Labs hosting.

2) Activity internationalization.

There are a number of activities in ASLO that are either English only or Spanish only. Each one could of these could be listed as an individual task to refactor for i18n and submit for Pootle hosting.

3) Infrastructure tasks

For example, I'll be creating a task for a new pootle-helper script to do msgfmt checks on PO files as part fo our regular Pootle cron jobs to prevent build-breakers in PO files from going un-noticed for more than 24 hours.
