Done (all necessary files are now in the tgz). For some reason, the effects menu doesn't work on my Inkscape. My GTK doesn't like to add menu entries dynamically for some reason; I've had the same problem when working with Dia extensions. So I haven't been able to test this in Inkscape, but it works when invoked from the command line the way the extension docs describe. If it doesn't work, let me know. Again, the link is

Cool, it would be great to get your help no matter the outcome from SOC. First of all, could you put your .INX file up at that URL where you put the extension for the test interface for OCAL.

Hey, thanks a ton for the feedback. I wish I'd showed it to you earlier; as it is, I submitted too late to incorporate your suggestions. Still, for the record, if accepted, I'd implement all the features I described, except for the ones I specifically said I wasn't sure I could do. By those, I mean placing clipart in the document near the drop location of a drag-and-drop operation, and full Gnome HIG compliance (I intend to try to implement both of those, but don't know enough about them to say for certain that I'll be able to). I'd help to improve the OCAL backend and API if that's ok with them, but none of the client features I described depend on server changes; I'd implement everything even without OCAL access. Also, since no one seemed to have a problem with implementing it as an extension, I'd do that, unless a mentor objected later. Finally, I'd provide integrated access to local clipart in addition to OCAL (this would be independent of the local caching feature I described).
Also, just so you know, the first title in my app was supposed to be a joke :). Thanks again,
Greg

Hi, I'm getting my application in really late, and Google

for some reason. My name is Greg Steffensen, I'm an

application:
The reason Google won't be working is that your proposal
text is too long
their submission form. They have stated that the
application needs to be
less than 9K. You can either cut it down to less than the
limit, or put
the full text up on a webpage and provide a link to that as
your
submission.
I would recommend cutting it down to this structure, with 5 paragraphs max:
- Intro and sum up all ideas
- explain the problem
- explain your proposed solution
- explain your proposed timeline
- conclude
At the end include a 4-6 sentence bio with a link to your website.
That is solid and will cut to the chase.
