GIMP: Great open source UI example
GIMP is the GNU Image Manipulation Program, and is free, open source software for photo retouching and image creation. It is a great example of user interface innovation in open source.
GIMP contributors can program new features, report bugs, write documentation, translate the product or its documentation, participate in a wonderful brainstorming site, work on the GIMP site, and more.
The GIMP UI brainstorm is a blog that is implemented as a visual brainstorm. Idea generators create images and email them to an email alias, and once vetted, the ideas are posted directly to the blog. As a proper brainstorm, comments are switched off.
The GIMP UI Redesign site is a wiki that contains background information and specifications for GIMP features. It is a great way to share technical details with the community.
The UI brainstorm is such a fantastic idea that Symbian has created its own version, aptly named Symbian UI Brainstorm, aptly named symbianuibrainstorm.wordpress.com. Please have a look and email your UI brainstorms for inclusion.
