Inkscape has been pretty good at marketing and gaining attention but
converting that attention into new contributors is a tougher trick and not
something most projects are good at.
The list of "Help Wanted" items Aaron Spike suggested is a phenomonally
good idea.
I've been batting around a couple of ideas that we might be new ways to
get developers involved in Inkscape.
I think we should ship with a basic task list and or add this to our
about/help menu for easy access to new developers. Also, I wonder on
what level we couldn't just say, "coming up next/soon in *THE NEXT
VERSION 0.XX*, we need help with these 10 items on our roadmap, here is
how you can help with these tasks.
Doesn't it seem like a great opportunity to put within our shipping
software, requests for help, hooks for new developers, etc?
I think we should be looking at ways we can do what closed source apps
can't do with these types of hooks.
What do you all think about these ideas?
Jon

On complex/large images, it's very nice being able to work with
the fewest or no palettes. The drop down tells me which layer
a selected object is on and together with the menu, it provides
access to all the functionality without taking so much screen
space.
BTW, I created this:

for
http://om-synth.nongnu.org/patchage.html
using recent SVN. Some fine-tuning left to do.
Huge performance problems, but blur and clipping rock :)
Most of the time, I used the layers dropdown.
