      This is beautiful. Amazingly beautiful.
We should encourage more docs like this. It empowers users and it showcase
our app at the same time.

Love-LOVE IT!
Just 3 minor suggestions, in no particular order
1 - Near the bottom "Avoid emotive language...."  "emotive" might not be
clear
for some people.  Maybe add a couple of examples in parentheses?  Or
instead of
"emotive" maybe 'avoid exaggerating'??  Not sure if "exaggerating" is
inclusive
of "emotive" though??
Possible short but sweet idea....although probably only the old folks will
"get
it".
"Just the facts ma'am."
2 - "Title:  Bug Appropriately"  That punctuation indicates that the title
is
"Bug Appropriately", which of course is meaningless.  I think you mean
"Title
the Bug Appropriately."?  Or just removing the colon would work too.
And the line just below that "Remember an title is the best...."  Should be
"Remember a title is the best....".  Even better would be a comma after
"Remember".
3 - At the very top, instead of "register a bug report", maybe "file a bug
report", or "submit" a bug report?  "Register" isn't entirely wrong, but
just a
thought.
I'd love to see it on the website.  I'm thinking on its own page.  And
there
would be a link to it on the Report Bugs page.  Not sure if that's what GR
wants
though.
I'll definitely link to it from my forum, if it's going to remain in GR's
blog.
Planet is for tutorials, right?  Or any kind of bloggish content?  Lazur
might
be interested.  He's not subscribed to the list, but I can ask.  I keep
urging
him to get more involved, but so far, isn't ready.  Off topic, but he's
done
some amazing work on filters!!!!

Hi Everyone,
Golden Ribbon (GR) has made this slick info graphic to explain and
prompt more users to help with Inkscape development.
http://grtuts.com/inkscape-development-builds/
He's asked me for advice on the details and I figure I'd throw it open
to everyone.
You can comment directly in the blog post if you like. Or here, since I
know GR is subscribed here too.
Also I think we might like to think about brining the planet back to
life with some new blood. I wouldn't mind having non-coders on the
planet, professionals perhaps. Or more than one if a planet is put into
the website for example (they're fairly easy to write)
Thoughts?
Best Regards, Martin Owens
