      <h1>Development</h1>
33
34
      <p>If you wish to become involved in the development of <span
35
    class="application">Recoll</span>, you are very much welcome,
36
  please send me an <a
37
    href="mailto:jean-francois.dockes@wanadoo.fr">email</a>.</p> 
38
39
      <p>Apart from general development for additional functionality
40
  or bug fixes, the following tasks are waiting for you:</p>
41
      <ul>
42
  <li>A better GUI design (both the ergonomy and the appearance).</li>
43
44
  <li>More translations for the GUI messages (there are
45
    relatively few messages, and it's easy to do with the Qt
46
    tools). English, French, Russian and Ukrainian versions currently
47
    exist. Contact me for directions if needed (or just use
48
    <span class="application">Qt Linguist</span> if you know it
49
    already). </li>
50
51
        <li>More support for the more advanced <span class=
52
      "application">Xapian</span> concepts like relevance
53
    feedback.</li>
54
55
        <li>An interactive indexing configuration tool.</li>
56
57
        <li>More filters for less common or less obviously
58
    useful file types.</li>
59
60
        <li>Integration with the <span class="application">KDE</span> 
61
    desktop.</li>
62
63
  <li>Integration with some mail user agent. We need a way to
64
    jump from a message preview to the message in thread context
65
    inside the MUA.</li>
66
67
  <li>Etc. :)</li>
