Hey crackwitz, I would love to help the maintainer there in opencv_contrib for help with the Julia Bindings but opencv seems like a big maze to traverse. I have tried building opencv from source and it takes a surprising amount of time to build 
What I find confusing is where to start?Can you provide me some direction?
From my perspective,
- I can setup according to this:
OpenCV: Introduction to Julia OpenCV Binding
which I already have but the build time
and try to build a single module and try to make that work for Julia - opencv/opencv_contrib/blob/4.x/modules/julia/README.md
has some interesting information too
I already have used OpenCV.jl and made even a project using it. I think it deserves a lot more attention and is needed to be better supported as it could have a good impact on computer vision community in Julia.
I am part of GSOC’22 with Julia Lang for ImagesIO support which provides support EXIF, GIF, JPEG2000 in Julia by writing bindings/wrappers for the corresponding C libraries namely LibExif, GifLib and OpenJpeg. I mean I am reasonably confident I can tackle this with some help and have experience on something similar despite it looking somewhat hard .
