Hi Tanuj,<br>
<br>
I wrote a big letter to the list. There is some answers there. Also
I add comments below.<br>

I replaced libpng folder of gdal (frmts/png/libpng) with
libpng 1.6.21. And then used ./configure and make
install on this test version of gdal, which installed
successfully. I used gdalinfo on a png file provided
with the libpng 1.6.21 source, to check if it was OK,
and it successfully gave the png file details.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>Is that enough to check the build on the computer?<br>

No, the autotests must be passed.<br>

I expected that travis from main gdal repo checked your PR.<br>

PS - Although I have copied the files from libpng 1.6.21
source to the gdal libpng folder, how would I know if any
of those files are not required for gdal?<br>

You need to see the previous version. Some files not needed (i.e.
configures and so on, which already comes from gdal, but legal
notice must be present (license, autors, etc.) ). Don't hesitate to
ask in list.<br>

<div>Yes, I have looked at the ideas list,
and I am currently reading up on idea no.
16, which is, implementing support for the
proposed standard for incrementally
parseable GeoJSON data.<br>
<br>
</div>
Also, I was thinking that maybe I could work
on ticket no 6294, <a

</div>
after I've studied about the GSoC idea, which
is not really a bug, but an enhancement. But
if there are any other tickets that you or
anyone else would like to recommend me to work
on, I'd love to see them too!<br>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</blockquote>
</span> I think this rather arguing ticket as the bool is
not exist in plain C, and duplication functions seems to
me not good idea.<br>
I think this ticket <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/6185"
target="_blank">https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/6185</a>
is good for: 1. building GDAL, 2. Testing via TraviC on
GitHub. By the way the libpng version is 1.6.21 or maybe
higher.<br>
<br>
Anyhow, you have to try to build gdal and test it with
autotests from <span lang="en"><span>appropriate</span></span>
folder. <span class="">

Now, about the GSoC idea, do I need to know
JSON( or GeoJSON, for that matter) to work on
it? I only ask because the idea lists C/C++ as
the required skills, but I feel that maybe this
work would involve knowing JSON too...<br>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</blockquote>
</span> Yes, certainly. But JSON are very simple. Also
GeoJSON spec. can be found here <a moz-do-not-send="true"

and regards,

<br>
I'll look for opened tickets for you, or
maybe others can recommend some for you.<br>
<br>
By the way, do you see the idea list (<a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/SummerOfCode#a2016IdeasList"

<br>
The ideas are not ranked yet - the numbers
in the list - are only in order. <br>
This is a task for us to rank the ideas. <br>
But, have you some preferable idea (or
ideas) for GSoC from this list or maybe you
have got own?<br>

<div>Hello,<br>
</div>
I am interested in applying
for GSoC this year. Currently,
I am reading up on the GDAL
Summer of Code ideas list. I
know C++ and C, and I have
some experience on working on
linux.<br>
</div>
Could the mentors please
recommend a bug for me to work
on, I'd really love to start off
as soon as possible!<br>
<br>

Thank you,<br>
