Hello Steren,
I asked a friend of mine about Inkscape. And he told me that he would like to have a kind of edit possibility for the images.
So if you (your students) also prepare an edit button. That would help a lot. I would spent some time to transfer the image to gimp and back. the question here also if the image should be edited as the image or as a copy.
HTH, Adib.

Hi, Once again, a team of sudents from Ecole Centrale Lyon (France) has chosen to work on Inkscape in the scope of their studies. (The same kind of work that brought LPE envelope, group and staking two years ago with Johan as mentor and the Spray tool last year mentored by Cédric). This year I will be the mentor of the team of six students, let me introduce them: Boughida Rafik Desgrange Yoann Ngom Mor Pais Vincent Soyer Baptiste Petit François (project leader)
This year will be focused on a better image management in the software (based on this blueprint: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/inkscape/+spec/image-properties-dialog-enha... ). Basically, they will do :
- enhancement of the image properties window
- smart relinking tool
- small enhancements of images in Inkscape : more relative links, use the
resolution at import, let the user choose at import if he wants to embbed ot to link.
The project will start in january and will last 6 months. They only have 4 dedicated hours per week, but I'm sure they will find time to do a serious work. We will post regular updates of the project on this list. The students may also ask for technical help or advice on irc and I know that the team will know how to welcome them well. I think the best is to use a branch. This time we will host it on launchpad and register it. You are very welcome for any support, help, ideas, reviews or anything. Cheers! Steren
