Hi! :) I would like to request an account on the Inkscape wiki. Red Hat is hosting a hackfest in our offices and I'd like to be able to update the attendee list on the wiki with local Red Hatters who would like to attend. Cheers, ~m

Sticker drama
by C R 25 Jan '18

25 Jan '18

Okay, so I made the mistake of paying a sticker printing company before I got a proof. I did this because usually printers are trustworthy enough to A) give a good proof, B) Accept changes needed, or C) refund if they can't (or in this case, just won't) do what you want). I'm sorry to say that discountsticekrprinting.co.uk can't handle any of these things. So I've learned a valuable lesson - never pay before proof. Since I can't seem to get my money back from them due to their customer-hostile purchase agreement, I'm going to have to get substantially larger stickers from them to compensate for their incompetence. - Something that will not look silly with a 3mm gap shoe-horned into the space around the graphic on the sticker. My questions are these: 1. How big would you like to see? 2. How big is useful or tolerable? :) 3. How big is "way too big" The choices are: 60mm, 80mm, 100mm Part of me wants to go like HUGE (100mm), because maybe we could sell them for a few bucks each to recoup sticker costs - maybe people would like to slap one on a CPU case or a skateboard or bumper of a car or something. I'm going with some other company for the 40mm silver stickers, since they look absolutely silly with an enforced 3mm gap around the edge - None of the other companies I've gotten quotes from are willing to inflict that nonsense on their customers. Any thoughts? Thanks. -C

Inkscape LiveAnimate plugin or Fork
by openInvent 25 Jan '18

25 Jan '18

I want to know how simple it would be to disable the GUI and mouse cursor on hot key press to draw directly to screen for Desktop cam live animations. Also want to set move group functionality to wasd , arrow keys or numpad to control 3 things at once. Or use mouse to move and possible mouse wheel to zoom or snap to splines pathings and mouse wheel tweening. Any ideas on how much work this feature would be? I can fork over 50USD if someone FORKS the Inkscape. For LiveAnimate. Sent with [ProtonMail](https://protonmail.com) Secure Email.

Hey everyone. Working on the sticker for the Boston hackfest. Did we ever get confirmation on the location? The page still says, RedHat Boston Office, but did we ever confirm? I'd like to include the location on the swag stickers. Thanks! -C

I thought for sure I had asked and already received rights to edit our wiki, but apparently not. Will someone grant me access to edit wiki.inkscape.org? -- Ryan Gorley Founder + Creative Director https://dijt.co

Turning off gitlab's "Allow users to request access"?
by Bryce Harrington 15 Jan '18

15 Jan '18

There's a setting "Allow users to request access" on our Inkscape main group (https://gitlab.com/inkscape). I'd like to switch it to 'off'. Are there any objections if I did this? This setting adds a button to our website for logged in users to push to send an email to our admins asking for membership to the inkscape main group. The effect of this gives them commit access on the inkscape repo (and I suspect maybe other git repos in subgroups; I'm not sure how the permissions propagate.) This was useful initially when everyone was needing gitlab access, but I think all the existing committers that want it have it. These days the requests we're getting are mostly from people with no registered activity related to Inkscape; we've been getting a handful of these invalid requests each month. Maybe they're clicking it on accident, or thinking that it's an affiliation mark, and not realizing that it gives full commit rights if granted. Turning it off simply removes the button, it wouldn't mean any change to our existing policies regarding earning of commit rights - applicants still need to get two patches reviewed, accepted, and landed and then contact one of the administrators to request access. (If we want to make this simpler later on, maybe one day we can rig up a form where they can enter the SHAs of their two patches.) Bryce

Hackfest swag
by C R 15 Jan '18

15 Jan '18

Thinking of doing another set of medallions for the Boston and LGM hackfests. My questions: 1. Do people like the metal / engraved ones, or would stickers be better? 2. Do people like them personalised like last year, or would you rather just have generic ones that all attendees get? 3. Do we want another order of (slightly larger) generic inkscape stickers to hand out at these events (especially LGM seems like a great place to hand them out). 4. Anything else?
