Hi Friends, I think I asked this before, but it was mixed up with another subject. And there seems to be a bit of a lull in the action, on the dev mailing list. So I thought it would be a good time to try again, when this is the only subject. In forums, probably 3 to 5 times in a year, people post a message asking either how to write an extension for Inkscape, or about some technical aspect of writing an extension. Or another version is - how to get an extension they wrote to be packed with Inkscape. Unfortunately, most of us don't have a clue about any of it, and there is no place to refer them. Now I'm working on fleshing out the Contribute page of the website, and it would be really nice to be able to provide a link to some kind of guide, or instructions, or article on the subject. It doesn't necessarily need to be a newbie's guide; so it wouldn't be teaching someone like me to write an extension. It would be addressed towards people who already have the needed skills and experience. So if anyone is interested, it would really be a great benefit to the Inkscape community, to have some information, in any kind of format, on how to write an Inkscape extension. It could be placed on the Inkscape wiki, or maybe even in your InkSpace (the gallery on the website) in Tutorials category. Thanks in advance, and thanks for listening. If anyone is interested, just let me know where to find it, when finished, and a link will be included on the Contribute page. :-)
Thanks again, brynn
