Hey Joel,<br><br>Given your interest in this area, you may want to get in contact with Abhishek Sharma (who I&#39;ve added to the discussion) as his Summer of Code project relates to our css parsing and libcroco. I&#39;m not saying what you&#39;re doing should not be pursued, however, if he finds that keeping libcroco is the correct path, your work could free him up to doing more work on our internal css handling.<br>

<br>Cheers,<br>Josh<br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, May 1, 2011 at 8:28 AM, Joel Holdsworth <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:joel@...1709...">joel@...1709...</a>&gt;</span> wrote:<br>

Hi Inkscape Devs,<br>
<br>
I&#39;ve decided to take it upon myself to try and get Inkscape&#39;s libcroco<br>
pushed upstream. I&#39;ve been doing some web searching about the previous<br>
discussions that have gone on about it:<br>

I&#39;ve been doing some work pulling out the differences between inkscape<br>
and upstream crocco into a series of tidy patches. The main differences<br>
are the libxml split-out, fixes for compiler warnings, and a couple of<br>
minor bug fixes.<br>
<br>
But as you know the main issue is about splitting out libxml, and I see<br>
that this has already been attempted<br>
here:<a href="http://bugzilla-attachments.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=129078" target="_blank">http://bugzilla-attachments.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=129078</a><br>
<br>
Do anyone know anything about the status of this patch? Was is rejected<br>
for some reason?<br>
<br>
Best Regards<br>
