Nice work.
Very cool. May want to think about a webpage too... at the least, a list of features.
Yah. I know. I tend to be better at writing code than web pages. Probably when gsf 2.x comes out or someone steps forward.
Possibly libgsf and neon would obviate any need for gnome-vfs but I haven't really looked in enough depth to say for sure. I haven't confirmed that gnome-vfs actually supports WebDAV, and if it does, how good the support is.
WebDAV is composed of a number of different methods, some basic (GET, PUT, HEAD), others more advanced (MOVE, MKCOL, PROPFIND, etc.) So when a lib or app says it supports WebDAV you have to check 'how much'. Neon supports a wide range of them, according to its feature list.
Interesting I'll have to have a look. As mentioned our plans had been to use libcurl for network related activity. However, I have not checked on its webdav status any more than gnome-vfs.
Have a look at Neon and let me know what you think. Would it be feasible to use it in conjunction with libgsf?
I'll have a look.
The direction we're heading is to make wrapperization of the app easier, whether that be with Python bindings (via SWIG?), Bonobo, or even a kind of SVG Canvas. Being able to plug inkscape into other things opens lots of very interesting uses of it.
That would be very interesting. Abi and Gnumric had previously discussed supporting embedding by just rendering an svg image. Something like this would be nice.
