OpenUsability Sponsored Student Projects: GIMP
OpenUsability (www.openusability.org) is an initiative that brings Open
Source Software (OSS) development and usability together. This symbiosis
is beneficial for both sides: Developers can make difficult user
interface (UI) decisions together with usability specialists, while
usability specialists can explore and further develop their skills in
real-world projects without the pressure of a commercial market.
Likewise, OpenUsability's mentored student projects are an excellent way
for usability, user-interface design, and interaction design students to
gain experience in the interdisciplinary and collaborative development
of user interface solutions in international software projects.
We are looking for a student who works on the user interface for the
next generation of the GNU Image Manipulation Program (www.gimp.org).
During a three-month cooperation, you will closely work together with
Peter Sikking, principal interaction architect at M+MI Works
(www.mmiworks.net). Activities include methodically performing a full
expert evaluation and analysis of the software, being fully involved in
every decision, and performing the bulk of the project work. You will
have a great opportunity to learn the ropes in interaction architecture
in a project that matters.
For details and information how to apply, see
www.openusability.org/studentprojects.
