Maemo provides a framework for developing applications for mobile devices, as well as porting existing applications in the Linux world. A lot has been done already, look at the projects available at garage.maemo.org to get an idea of what already exists, in order to come up with your brand new ideas. They can be a new functionality added to a consolidated application, a first prototype for a promising new applications exploring new functionality, or a small but killing application bringing the unexpected. We recommend you to propose small challenges developed with good performance instead of big plans impossible to concrete in 3 months. You can be really useful adding a cool new module to be used by other applications or setting a first stone in a project to attract new attention.
Add your project ideas in the table bellow.
If you are a accepted mentor and wants to mentoring one of the possible projects, add you name to the table with your maemo.org nickname (eg. Valério Valério (vdvsx)).
