Board Meeting (March 6th 2020 6PM UTC)
by Martin Owens 03 Mar '20

03 Mar '20

Dear all, The next board meeting is on Friday. Because we have several people who aren't able to attend, this will be a lighter than usual meeting. Please see the agenda here: https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php?title=Board_Meetings Timer: https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20200306T10&p1=202 We probably won't have enough board members to vote on anything. So hopefully we'll be able to spend some time talking about other things. Thanks everyone. Best Regards, Martin Owens

LGM Hackfest in Rennes, France
by Marc Jeanmougin 21 Feb '20

21 Feb '20

Hi everyone, we will likely have our next hackfest in Rennes, France, just before LGM in May. LGM is May 26-29 and it's likely the hackfest will last for a few days before it (last hackfests lasted from 3 to 5 days). All contributors* are welcome and encouraged to attend the hackfest! Financial support will be available, but please sign up in advance (either by answering to this email, or by adding yourself on https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php?title=Hackfest2020_Rennes_Attendees ), to account for possible limited hosting capacity and to allow expense (and logistics) planning. I hope to see lots of you there :) -- Marc (* not just code, a hackfest can be a productive time to write a tutorial, discuss some UX, progress on a translation, or coordinate some media outreach, for instance!)

"Getting Started with Development" instructions
by Maximilian Gaukler 18 Feb '20

18 Feb '20

Hi everyone, I am about to update the "getting started" instructions for new developers: https://inkscape.org/develop/getting-started/ If you have any further suggestions, feel free to answer. I'd like to consolidate all changes into one big edit because every change needs to be translated. Here's my list of changes: - git SSH -> change to HTTPS (as discussed a few months ago) - "Install build dependencies": replace old "apt-get" instructions with the new script from inkscape-ci-docker. Download and run the script to install all requirements: wget -v https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape-ci-docker/raw/master/install_dependenc… -O install_dependencies.sh bash install_dependencies.sh --recommended - "/usr in the example" -> "in the example, it is installed in inst/ inside the source folder" - "Versions <= 0.92" -> remove from tutorial, move to Wiki remove mentioning of autotools, as CMake is now the default - do not mark optional arguments with "[ ]" so that copy-paste into the shell works. Also, omitting some of these arguments (e.g. ccache) will horribly slow down compilation, so they aren't truly optional. Instead, just add a note that these arguments may be omitted. - after changes are published: remove redundant info from the Wiki page https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php?title=CompilingUbuntu Have a nice weekend, Max

Hi Elisa, thank you :) for organizing and for the invitation. There's going to be an Inkscape Board Meeting next week Friday evening at 19:00. I think the Rennes Hackfest will be a topic on the agenda then. Would you or Cédric maybe have time to join the Board for a bit of planning?

LGM: About two weeks left for entering your talk/workshop submission!
by Maren Hachmann 01 Feb '20

01 Feb '20

Hi everyone, this is a reminder that you can still submit a proposal for a talk, lightning talk, hackathon, Birds-of-a-feather meeting or workshop for this year's Libre Graphics Meeting. LGM will take place in Rennes (Brittany, France) from May 26-29 2020. The deadline for your submissions is February 17th. More info about your submissions: https://libregraphicsmeeting.org/2020/en/program.html Info about the venues: https://libregraphicsmeeting.org/2020/en/venue.html The main focus of this year's event is 'Getting Things Done'. The organizers explain that this "means explaining how you manage to attract more contributors, how you manage the tasks of development, fixing bugs, the general directions that you want to take your project, and how you interact to accomplish this. You might even talk about ideas you have but have not yet implemented. Part of Getting Things Done means sharing ideas and methods with each other and with artists." They are looking for: " * Presentations attracting new contributors to projects * Information about how your project "gets things done" * Productive workshops to improve and extend software * Technical presentations and workshops for developers * Showcases of excellent work made using Libre Graphics tools " There's also an Inkscape Hackfest planned to take place either during, before or after LGM, so stay tuned ;-) Maren
