commercial work on Inkscape may be needed
by cedric GEMY 28 Jun '06

28 Jun '06

Hi guys, i'm back with my idea. I already told that somebody contacted me to customized Gimp. But after some more explanations, i think Inkscape could win many things of the project and that it matches some actual development. At first glance, only one thing would be hard. People interested to work a Inkscape Commercial developer can contact me quickly at this email : cedric@...1385... Hope to hear from someone. Cedric

Zero Install metadata for Inkscape 0.44
by Thomas Leonard 28 Jun '06

28 Jun '06

I've added the RPM for 0.44 to the Zero Install interface file. I've put up a copy here: http://0install.net/tests/Inkscape.xml Run this way, the RPM works on Debian/unstable, Debian/testing and Ubuntu/5.10 (if you have libglitz, libstdc++6, libgtkspell0, libgnomevfs2-0 and libxslt1.1 installed). It does not work on Debian/sarge (due to a (bogus?) dependency on pangocairo). If you'd like to host this on the inkscape.org site, the steps are: 1. Download the XML above: $ wget http://0install.net/tests/Inkscape.xml 2. Get 0publish (if you don't have it already): $ 0alias 0publish http://0install.net/2006/interfaces/0publish 3. Set the URI to the address on the inkscape site where it will be made available, and resign with your GPG key: $ 0publish Inkscape.xml \ --set-interface-uri=http://inkscape.org/2006/Inkscape.xml \ --key=Jean 4. This will also create a .gpg file with your public key. Upload both to the same directory on the web-server. People will then be able to install it using: $ 0alias inkscape http://inkscape.org/2006/Inkscape.xml or by dragging to their GUI installer. Thanks, -- Dr Thomas Leonard http://rox.sourceforge.net GPG: 9242 9807 C985 3C07 44A6 8B9A AE07 8280 59A5 3CC1

Summer of Code mid-program reviews
by Bryce Harrington 28 Jun '06

28 Jun '06

The forms for filling out reviews are now available. Google extended the deadline a bit - we have until the 5th to get reviews in. All mentors should go here and fill it out (it's quick!) http://code.google.com/soc/mentor_home.html In your review, one thing to consider is if the student has published some code, and if it has been integrated into the main codebase.

0.44.1 stable
by Ralf Stephan 27 Jun '06

27 Jun '06

Hello, in my opinion, there is now evidence of the most urgent things that should be patched in 0.44.1. For every except one of these (gcc-4.2) there is a patch in the tracker. Maybe some are not urgent or safe enough for stable, so I ask mental to review the following: - compile failure with gcc-4.2.x (working with submitter) - 1510462 crash bug 1509854 (maybe unsafe, untested) - 1512200 ODG export problem (by ishmal) - 1513113 OSX problems when space in path (by mwybrow) - 1498946 PNG export now saves resolution (deemed safe by me) ----------------------------------------------------------- - 1509634 Full en_GB translation - 1512096 Slovak strings for Windoze installer - 1509834 Polish strings for Windoze installer - 1507788 Vietnamese strings for Windoze installer - 1509842 French update to keys and other svgs - 1509828 German update to translation - 1509487 Spanish update to translation Already fixed in stable head (and added to 0.44 Release Notes) is: * fix a crash on Windows ("python.exe can't find msvcrt71.dll") by providing that dll in the package; * added missing German version of the advanced tutorial and made corrections to the calligraphy one; added missing Czech, German, and Brazil-Portuguese tutorials to tarball; * several changes to allow compiling on glib-2.4 systems (e.g. RHEL4); Please decide which to reject, Regards, ralf

copying of arrays / gcc-4.2.x
by Ralf Stephan 27 Jun '06

27 Jun '06

Hello, with version 4.2.x of gcc (and Intel's icc) it is no longer possible to circumvent ISO restrictions like this (selected-style.cpp:115): - _drop((void*[]){0,0}), - _dropEnabled((bool[]){false, false}) Please use normal per-element initialization in the code now. ralf

I notice that there are a lot of users with wiki pages in the main namespace (ie # BryceHarrington). Each user of the wiki has a page under "User:username" if people that have user pages that do not start with "User:" please merge and redirect your old page.

Filters UI
by Hugo Rodrigues 26 Jun '06

26 Jun '06

It's probably early to start working on it, but where should the filters UI be placed? I suppose the most obvious choice would be having a new "Filter" entry on the "Object" menu, and on context menu. Another option would be to modify the "Fill and Stroke" dialog to incorporate a new filter tab, but I think this would be a bit out of context. Another issue is the layout within this filter UI, which can become very complex if not handled correctly... Any ideas? Not urgent questions, but it would help to hear the community's opinion on this. Hugo
