Hey folks. I'm going to do a writeup of the hackfest to accompany and help finish the video content. If each of the hackfest attendees could answer these questions for me, I'll combine all of it into the hackfest summary.
Woops, I realize I planned to, then forgot :D
- What did you work on during the Kiel hackfest?
Mostly performance improvements in core areas[to be precise : tracing where some operations spent most time and trying to optimize those, ending up in changing some XML containers and improved prefs lookup, not sure it's worth going into details], also trying to add built-in autotrace support for centerline tracing, plus pre-planning a possible timing for 1.0
- I'm currently working on news translation (and fixing up some more things in the English one as I come across them) - I'll include the performance improvements you worked on, Marc.
- What do you consider the best benefit to being at the Kiel hackfest
this year?
Meeting everyone! Plus being able to help others e.g. with speeding the build or with some parts of the code or interact with Martin about UI, but also having lots of time dedicated to focus on Inkscape without interruptions
- What were the most fun things or things you most enjoyed about the
hackfest?
The trip to the museum, and getting an intergalactic passport from the people from the upper floor during the Kieler open source day!
- I got one, too :) Be sure to take a look under UV light ;-)

- Did your hackfest activities extend beyond the hackfest?
Yes, a patch I wanted to land is not ready, some Inkscape internals are really tricky. Oh, and I also stayed at the Open source event :)
- Did the hackfest increase your motivation to work on the Inkscape
project?
Nah, that would not be healthy, it's already past midnight and I'm writing to the ml
- Anything else you'd like to include. :)
Thank Maren for the organization!!
