[kde-promo] tasks for Google Code-in

[David Edmundson]

If we want to propose ideas we need someone to mentor them.

Given it's a 13-17 year old doing this, I can't see it being
particularly beneficial and without meaning to sound rude I frankly
can't be bothered.

It doesn't mean that someone else can't volunteer.

> * Code: Tasks related to writing or refactoring code
> * Documentation: Tasks related to creating/editing documents
> * Outreach: Tasks related to community management and outreach/marketing
> * Quality Assurance: Tasks related to testing and ensuring code is of
> high quality
> * Research: Tasks related to studying a problem and recommending solutions
> * Training: Tasks related to helping others learn more
> * Translation: Tasks related to localization
> * User Interface: Tasks related to user experience research or user
> interface design and interaction
>
> Please think of tasks. I'll go around with a wiki page or similar
> later to collect them.
