Re: [Inkscape-devel] Multipage support as a GSoC project?

      Hi,
There are certainly enough SVG compliance issues to fill a GSOC. As
Jasper mentions Markers and linearRGB are two items but there are many
more. Here is a quick list:
* Filters:
        Use of linearRGB.
        Use of primitiveFilterUnits (also add GUI).
        GUI for feImage's preserveAspectRatio.
        feTile.
        Fill Paint/Stroke Paint inputs.
        Many minor issues.
        (A good GSOC project would be to focus on filters with the
         addition of speeding up rendering by parallel processing.)
* Markers:
        ViewBox.
        End of stroke.
* SVG Fonts
* Text
        Underlines.
        Alignment issues.
        Left to Right text.
        Vertical text.
        Many minor issues.
* Basics:
        Overflow: visible.
        Entities.
        Using ObjectBoundingBox for coordinates.
        Masks: Clip Rule.
        Square butts.
        Switch support.
        Namespaces.
        External SVG support.
        Many minor issues.
* CSS
        Inheritance issues.
        Font fallbacks.
        Many minor issues.
You can find a web page showing 0.48 results for the W3C SVG compliance
tests at:

You can get a summary at:

Hovering over a "Fail" will usually tell you why Inkscape failed.
