This year Creative Commons has a much more limited focus on what we would like to see out of Google Summer of Code than in previous years. A specific project is listed below:
Creative Commons LibreOffice (OpenOffice) plugin updates
We'd like to see various updates to the LibreOffice plugin. We've had significant work done on the OpenOffice plugin over the last few years, particularly in 2010.
We'd like to see more work done on the plugin. Some particular things we'd like to see:
- Get the extension added to the LibreOffice extension center
- General UI cleanup: eg, make the tabs be actual tabs, if possible
- Switch Public Domain Certification tool to use Public Domain Mark instead
- Rewrite from Java to Python
- ???
