I'm sorry to tell this but my prof more or less decided for me to work on a 
different subject so helping krita is out of question for me for now. As it 
looks right now it'll be about a global color correction for panorama 
images. Also interesting but unfortunately not very useful for krita as I 
am supposed to enhance a panorama program created by some guy at my profs 
department.

This one sounds very interesting (and I'm not talking about the money). I 
hope time allows me to have a try at this when I'm finished with my 
upcoming project.
