Hi all,
Any thoughts on what we should do for getting an about screen for this release? Contest?

We could host it on Open Clip Art Library? We have a contest engine...we could setup a time limit, who will judge, or let the community judge as a poll...I am in favor of leaving final selection up to Inkscape devs. however...

Cool, that'd work. Perhaps the community could vote to narrow the selections to the top 10% for the developers to choose from?
Also, would it be worthwhile to tie this in with the deviant art community? Perhaps we can announce in both places but encourage them to use OCAL for uploading and ranking?

I like that...sounds like a good compromise...

Yes, this would be a great way to interconnect both of those communities.
People on Open Clip Art Library, what do you think?

One obligatory condition for the graphic: it must use blur in some way.

Good point. Are there any other new features that would be "nice to have"?
Bryce
Yeah, it would be cool to have some design conditions.
What about: has to be self-referential to inkscape (interface, icons, etc)?

I'd leave the content up to the artists, tell them what we want to show off, but let them decide how to do it.
just my .02

Yes, I think using blur should be the only precondition, apart from (of course) using the Inkscape name, logo, and version number in the drawing. ("Draw Freely" would be nice, but not obligatory.)

Ok, this all sounds good. Ryan Lerch is helping plan these contests, so I'm cc'ing him and the Open Clip Art Library list.
This all sounds good.

Please keep me posted so I can do the announcements on the inkscape accounts on deviantART and submit a news item there as well.

Hopefully you are on the Open Clip Art Library list too :)
