Hello, We are a team of five french students from the "Ecole Centrale de Lyon" (an engineer high school, see www.ec-lyon.fr). Our programs are quite general, we attend programming lessons but we are not informatics specialists
In second year, we have to work on a professional project for five months (officialy 4 hours a week, but... we can spend much more time). I thought it would be a good idea to help developing inkscape. The only things the school demands is a tutor (in our case, from the dev team) and requirements. The tutor will be here to help on specific technical questions, to check the progress of the project and to validate goals.
I have been using inkscape for two years for serious projects. And I am currently working with both the stable and the svn version (on ubuntu and windows) I've found some some projects from the wiki that could fit with what we have to do : - the perspective tool ( http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/PerspectiveObject ) - the add/substract node tool ( http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/NewTools ) - Inkscape / GIMP raster graphics Editing Integration from GSoC 07
Thanks for your response Steren
