Possibly, though I think we should rather not make a contest for something as permanent as this. Don't mind collecting renditions, but having a contest implies a winner will be chosen from the things submitted, and feelings might get hurt if no one is chosen. So I'd say let's wait until we have (internally), something we can live with, and then it can go in with the other submissions, so at least we have a fall back just in case. -C On Thu, Dec 1, 2016 at 10:38 AM, Marker <info@...2893...> wrote: > I think, if web team is not exausted, it could be cool a Inky contest. > > On Thu, 2016-12-01 at 08:05 +0000, C R wrote: >> I don't have the inky mockups done for this one.

Including BSD-Licenced code in Inkscape
by Alexander Brock 01 Dec '16

01 Dec '16

Hi, TLDR: I want to include 3-clause BSD licenced code in Inkscape. I want to improve curve fitting in Inkscape. I was told that Inkscape uses the GSL for root finding etc. so I thought I might implement curve fitting using the headers <gsl/gsl_multifit_nlinear.h> This works but I'd like to improve it by providing derivatives to the solver instead of relying on numerical differentiation. I researched Autodiff tools and found that most require libraries which are difficult to build on windows. At work I use Ceres solver. I extracted the autodiff code (jet.h) from the source code and modified slightly so it works without futher dependencies. Ceres is licenced under the 3-clause BSD licence: http://ceres-solver.org/license.html May I include the modified source code in Inkscape? Best Regards, Alexander

Contest Results and Developer Voting
by Martin Owens 01 Dec '16

01 Dec '16

Dear developers, The about screen contest for 0.92 is complete and we have our three runner ups for us developers to choose from: https://inkscape.org/en/gallery/=about-screen-contest/contest-for-092+0 / Each of the three are marked as "Next Round", please email to the mailing list with your choices. Simply put your numbers in order of preference, so 3214 would mean 3 is my first choice, 2 is my second choice etc. You don't have to rank all numbers if you don't want to. You'll notice that I've chosen 4 items, this is because 1 and 3 are so similar and I wanted to give us a better choice. Thanks to all our artists and voters, I think this round has been really good. I actually voted for "Ngarai Sianok" and a lot of people loved "Freedom Machine" (see comments on those items). So I'll be adding a few of these to the website front page when 0.92 is released, to replace the current set of images. Best Regards, Martin Owens

Inkscape Shop
by Martin Owens 29 Nov '16

29 Nov '16

Dear Developers, We've been playing with the settings for the inkscape shop, the conservancy backed spreadshirt account. I'm looking for comments from others about the look of it and what kinds of things we've added to start. https://shop.spreadshirt.com/inkscape-shop/ There's a few restrictions with what we can do, for instance vector art doesn't support gradients / blur etc. But we'll keep playing with the settings to get a good result and then maybe order a few things to test. What do you think? Best regards, Martin Owens

Inkscape Shop Results
by Martin Owens 28 Nov '16

28 Nov '16

Dear all, I just got delivery of my inkscape items, one cup and one hat. The cup can be seen here: https://inkscape.org/en/~doctormo/%E2%98%85in kscape-cup-natural-setting It's a good cup, for a simple logo it doesn't justify the $15, but for a more complex artwork it might. The hat looks about as silly as you could imagine, my wife has denied me the right to post that picture. But at $28 it's the least likely product for us to have on the shop. Bryce has gotten a couple of t-shirts and I hope he posts a photo too with a review. There's someone else who ordered some items from Texas, we don't know who, but if that's you, we'd love for you to post a review when your items arrive. Best Regards, Martin Owens

Mesh gradient test and comment
by Nicolás Guarín-Zapata 28 Nov '16

28 Nov '16

Hello, I have tested the Mesh gradient tool and it works. Although the nodes and node handles should be differentiable as mentioned before (https://sourceforge.net/p/inkscape/mailman/message/35501606). I would also mention that it would be great if the "central" nodes can be group to a single node in the case of conic gradient. Of course, this won't be necessary when one is working with a ring and not a circle, but in some cases it might be useful (see HSV_mesh.png, where this proves useful). I attached a couple of images that I generated using the mesh gradient tool Best, -- Nicolás Guarín-Zapata PhD Student - Purdue University Computational Multi-Scale Material Modeling Lab https://engineering.purdue.edu/~zavattie/ Linux user #514760

Looks awesome Jabier! I can see this being useful for cell-shading comics, and it masks the issue Inkscape has where a small gap is rendered between adjacent fill edges.

Survey
by Victor Westmann 26 Nov '16

26 Nov '16

Hi Guys, I was just wondering if we could run a simple and quick survey to our users to get to know them better and to know what they know about the software and how much are they involved with the project (software and community), This is just a draft so improvements and thoughts are more than welcome: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CcV6rEYq5iIzZKkx_qPU6G5rp0O5D UM0EfQ3hD_Gt4o/edit?usp=sharing What do you guys think? This initiative took place inspired in the "State of JS" survey: http://stateofjs.com/2016/introduction/ Cheers! --Victor Westmann
