Hello everyone,
As I mentioned earlier, I updated Inkscape description at Apple downloads. The description was taken from the text on the main page of the site and now that I played a bit with it and compared it to other software, I tend to find it quite verbose and technical. This text is what people will copy paste to describe Inkscape (as I did) and does not look to appealing to me. For example I don't think there is enough emphasis on the UI which is one of Inkscape greatest strengths while some very basic things (shapes, paths, etc) are mentioned while they can be considered self evident. Would a rework of this text be acceptable or has it already been reworked many times and this is considered final? How do you want Inkscape to be perceived: as a UI on top of SVG or as a vector editor that happens to use SVG as its format?
More specifically about Apple Downloads, I just thought I would let you know that their staff updated Inkscape description. Now Inkscape has a nicer screenshot, a more detailed description and is classified as Imaging and 3D rather than under the more abstract "unix & open source" label. http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/imaging_3d/inkscape.html However, since I submitted it, it is listed under my name (but links to www.inkscape.org). This is obviously wrong (I don't want people thinking that Inkscape is my project, by any means!) and I tried to correct it by adding "Inkscape Community" as my company name. I hope they will update the description soon. For 0.46, the best thing will probably be to open an Apple account under the name "Inkscape Community" and then I'll delete Inkscape from mine.
Cheers,
