Hi folks,<br>
<br>
I have been busy lately and will continue to be for the next couple of<br>
weeks. However, summer possibility exploration happens, too. So. Here's<br>
a GSoC proposal. Comments appreciated! :)<br>

<div><br></div><div>The only thing that initially threw me off a bit was the first sentence "<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; ">finding ways for users ... to interact with developers". This lead me to believe we're talking about direct communication facilities or something (and I was very intrigued by what you had in mind;-) rather than users being able to simply submit reports about hardware issues, bugs, etc.</span></div>

It seems like a more system-wide approach could be more efficient here (however this might be beyond what's achievable during GSoC)...</span></div>
