	Haha :-) indeed, there are a lot of them. Nice work with the Photo
Album functionality - did you add a nice screenshot and credit to:

	https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/4.1

	for it ? :-)

	From my perspective I think:

https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Gsoc/Ideas#Support_for_Firebird_Database_in_Base

	is a really nice GSOC task - it shouldn't be extremely hard, but it
would be excessively useful and provide a huge win for base users.

https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Gsoc/Ideas#Follow-me_slide-show

	Should also be quite fun - with a fair bit of UI improvement work
around it.

	Of course; there are lots of other rather cool things - I like
liblibreoffice as a topic personally - it's quite open-ended but should
be v. fun to hack on.

	HTH,

		Michael.
