Hi,
This is the first time me emailing you directly to your mail, hope you don't mind.
I read your emails and am now trying to go through the mailing list to get an idea what's going on. If you could give me a brief high-level overview what's the plan that would also be great.
Also, I think creating an informal slack workspace, or communicating on some other media would be more productive than exchanging emails.
Regarding your message, "Once that's done I'm sure other guys will start to chip in", I am quite sceptical. Although I am really interested in this project, I doubt the Inkscape devs would accept this huge of an update on face value. The other day, I did actually ask in the rocketchat regarding your work and the "official" reply I got was they. very likely, would not integrate the code into the Inkscape project especially since it has not been discussed and finalised by the devs. This should not be shocking though, as big open-source names rarely accept important changes in their software without extensive review and planning by the core developers.
Still, I think the vision of animation creation is revolutionary and highly in-demand and your work valuable. That is why I suggest perhaps we should discuss working on this project as an Inkscape extension rather than an update to the main software. This is because the last thing we would want after investing large amounts of time and energy is to let it go futile with no way of spreading our work to the people. What are your thoughts?
