May be you would like to do something in image processing?
You could have a look at
http://www.physik.uni-halle.de/~e2od5/debian
There I set up a page for the image viewer paul. I split
gtkimreg from this project. I have plans to add a widget, say
GtkRotate, which lets the user rotate images. There are rotating
algorithms in ImageMagick (I had a look at the 4.2 code and have
access to the relavant rotating code) or in Gimp.
The next interesting work could be at GtkDatabox (a link to this could
be found at the page mentioned above) from Roland Bock. The
display of coordinate systems has to be improved and a diagram of
bars could be added.
In my opinion these are small separate projects which could be
enhanced relatively independend. Testing of the enhancements
can be easily done with the test programs shipped with the libs.
Debian packages are available.
Kind regards
Andreas.
