The page with soipodi listed is: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mentors

if you scroll down to "artwork" where Mairin Duffy is listed, it shows it as one of the areas of expertise.

Thanks for the link, I'll pick something up!!

Our flickr group is not very active, I still hope we will get at some
point some Free infrastructure for sharing photos. I am also pretty much
into photography these days, maybe for F12 we will be able to do
something with photos (at least "Wallpaper Extras").

This is fine, I think you will learn a lot by playing with some real
stuff for a clear goal.

BTW: Sodipodi is an old application, the predecessor of Inkscape. Please
tell me where you saw it listed, so I can remove it.

Don't be afraid to post here about your ideas, I hope we are not that
scary :p

We have a page where people can request work from us, see if you find
there something interesting to work on:
