InkscapeForum.com for offer to Inkscape.org
by microUgly 06 Oct '09

06 Oct '09

If you don't know, I run www.inkscapeforum.com--a relatively successful phpBB forum for Inkscape users. I created the forum because I knew there was demand and at the time I knew I could devote a lot of time to make it successful. But I was never fond of the idea that a single person would have ownership of the data accumulated from the community. I wanted to offer ownership of the forum to Inkscape.org. Ideally this only needs to go as far as knowing that if I were hit by a bus, someone could step in and take over. I don't know how things are ran on the inkscape.org site, but I would be offering the entire setup to be hosted by inkscape.org (if possible). I would happily continue to moderate, and administer the board if appropriate access were given. And I would redirect inkscapeforum.com to the new domain, or change it's name servers. Anyway, discussion open. Would Inkscape.org be interested in adopting the forum? The forum won't be shutdown regardless of the answer. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/InkscapeForum.com-for-offer-to-Inkscape.org-tp2467341… Sent from the Inkscape - Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Save As option?
by bulia byak 06 Oct '09

06 Oct '09

I missed the discussion of this new option but, honestly, I don't understand it from the tooltip and the Release Notes (which I edited some, but still). What is "current working directory"? For an average Windows user this does not make much sense I guess. They just click icons. Can you explain it in more functional terms? The tooltip explains what happens for previously saved or not saved documents. But both these are for this checkbox on, right? What if it is off? -- bulia byak Inkscape.

URGENT FOR ALL DEVS
by Joshua A. Andler 05 Oct '09

05 Oct '09

Aurium (and EVERYONE else), People who do not have explicit permission to commit right now need to please respect the rules during release and NOT make commits until the announcement has been made that trunk has opened up again for general development. Aurium, I am going to back out your recent change (not the Authors one) as we are beyond Feature freeze & in String freeze. Cheers, Josh

Changed a string
by Joshua A. Andler 05 Oct '09

05 Oct '09

Hello Translators, I am so sorry to have to tell you that I had to change a string during String Freeze as it was not clear enough in English. Again, it relates to the Save page in preferences. Given that this happened we will give you all a few extra days for translations. It would be great if the translations could be completed by next Wednesday. Cheers, Josh

Hi, attached is a fix for bug 402274. It's trivial and I cannot imagine it causing any problems but I'd be glad if someone could take a quick look anyway in case I overlooked something. Thanks, Max

archutil error in win build?
by Docsonic 05 Oct '09

05 Oct '09

When I try to build the latest svn (22396) under 32-bit windows, I get an error - Make error line 413: executeCommand : could not create process : the system cannot find the file specified. Make error line 413: <staticlib> problem: When I look at the build.xml file, line 413 says - <staticlib command="${archutil}ar crsv" file="${build}/libinkscape.a"> I was going to change the value of archutil but I am not sure what it should be set to? Currently it is set to - <property name="archutil" value=""/> Any ideas?

Fix for LP 273767; was: Re: [Patch] Fix for LP 402274
by the Adib 04 Oct '09

04 Oct '09

Joshua, release warden, I do not have "the" solution for https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/273767 But I have a fix in post #6 of this issue that might prevent further crashing by range overflow. The other one has a deeper impact in everything so I can not judge how it behaves on the other end. PLs review the first patch and commit. I agree to concentrate on release critical issues. so please summarise what is still open. And what has to be done. Thanks, Adib. On 10/4/09, Joshua A.
