Hi all,
I am happy to have two things to announce.
1/
The payment method has been finalised. In short, it will be via
Paypal. This means if you participate, you should have a Paypal
account.

2/
The image requests will be organised through JIRA, the issue-tracking
system on the toolserver. There is project called 'PGIP' where they
will appear.
<https://jira.toolserver.org/browse/PGIP>
You will need to create an account on JIRA, to be able to pick up
requests to work on.
Using JIRA lets us easily arrange new (unfulfilled) requests,
filled-but-not-completed requests, requests awaiting review, reviewed
requests awaiting payment, and finally completed requests.
There are some "issues" there now ("Illustrations") which all have
names like "test 5", "test 6". I encourage folks to
a) create an account on JIRA
b) play around with the test issues - e.g. by assigning one to
yourself, add comments etc.
JIRA should be fairly multilingual, please let me know if you have
trouble setting your language preference.
What's next: finalising the request list, and then we hop to it!
cheers,
Brianna
