Developer discussion for Creative Commons technology and tools

Nathan or Asheesh,

       In another email Asheesh said: "If you have a project in mind, tell us and we'll help make sure it is a good fit for your skills and our needs; and also, if you have a fully-written project proposal, we'd love to read it and give you feedback before you submit its final form". Already have someone interested in these projects that I interested? If so, what do you
recommended me? I want to prepare a proposal that I have more chance of
winning. Until when can I send a proposal to you so that I can receive a feedback?
    
Thanks

     Please verify if I am correct. The idea is to make the Open only search by tags, filters for licenses, and add. There is no scope to add CC license notice to the document itself, okay?    
     Nevertheless, when you say "because it involves substantial new development work", some reuse can be done the work of Cássio Melo? Or rather, I need to use part of the work or is it totally new?
  
Thanks

The Draw support for the CC OOo Addin isn't on the SoC list because we
didn't feel that it was of the appropriate scope.  It's mostly just
adding support for embedding the image in the Draw document (the
metadata would be the same as in the other document types).  The
Flickr Image Re-Use for OOo is more interesting to us because it
involves substantial new development work.  Note that we mentioned
Flickr in particular because they support retrieval of CC licensed
photos through the search API.  I don't believe that Picasa has
similar support (although I'd be ecstatic to be proven wrong), so it's
not an appropriate back end choice for the project.

I'd encourage you to ask any questions you have here on the list so
that the maximum number of people can chime in; you'd be working with
myself or Asheesh Laroia as your mentor on the Flickr + OOo project.
