a) Has anyone using the dbus API since it was merged with trunk noticed a regression with "desktop_new"? According to bug #569238 [1] "desktop_new no longer returns nil, it now times out. light testing with rectangle crashes inkscape (...)" (reported with current trunk built on fedora 13, dbusapi enabled)
Hi, I used it. My rev is 9689 from trunk with some customization patch: http://code.google.com/p/inkboardng/source/browse/trunk/merging_gsoc2009_api... http://code.google.com/p/inkboardng/source/browse/trunk/fix_dbus_option.patc...
The desktop_new() works and return the desktop's name.
b) Related to the dbus API docs - would it be possible to make the documentation available on the Inkscape Wiki? Not every platform has the tools installed to build it using 'dbus/builddocs.sh' (e.g. on osx the list of (otherwise unneeded) dependencies in order to install 'xmlto' via MacPorts is huge) - yet users might be interested to read more about it.
