What can we improve in our wiki?
by Victor Westmann 02 Jan '20

02 Jan '20

Hi All, I was just taking a look at Blender's Wiki ( https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/Main_Page) and I was happy to identify they are using a similar wiki engine as we are. But I also noticed that they have a more modern (beautiful?) visual than we do. Is this something we are able to implement in our wiki as well? Besides this... are we going to revamp our wiki and centralize documentation material in it? Or are we going to readthedocs? Or are we going to centralize our efforts in the Gitlab wiki feature? Please let me know. I am really excited to read the article on how to write themes and icon sets for inkscape 1.x once it is ready. Thanks, Victor

Minimum and recommended requirements?
by Victor Westmann 30 Dec '19

30 Dec '19

Hi All, Do we know where one can find the minimum, and recommended requirements to run Inkscape in their computers? I was just wondering if this could be found anywhere. So I went to google and tried: "inkscape minimum requirements" Oddly enough the first link was pointing to Adobe Illustrator... And when I did the same search in our own wiki (wiki.inkscape.org) the results I got were: https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php?search=requirements&title=Special%… Which pointed to the Effects, Extensions... but not to the actual requirements (Software and hardware) needed to run Inkscape on one's local machine. If this really does not exist anywhere could we add this in the website or in the wiki somewhere? What are the team's thoughts on this? Thanks, Victor

new Tutorials page for website
by brynn 22 Dec '19

22 Dec '19

Hi Friends, I've made a proposed new page which introduces something new for the website, which is new official tutorials. The page pretty much explains everything. For those who have website editing access, you can see the proposed new page here: https://inkscape.org/tutorials-proposed/?edit&language=en For those who don't have editing access, the page gives guidelines for the tutorials that would be acceptable, and invites contributors. I would also contact all the tutorial authors which I've found while creating Inkscape Community's big listings of tutorials (https://forum.inkscapecommunity.com/index.php). And there would either be a new channel in the chatroom for discussing these tutorials...or maybe we would just use the Documentation channel. (I'm not sure.) Generally my idea is that authors would submit tutorials, which I, or anyone else who might be interested, would review, to make sure they meet the guidelines. The tutorials must carry the CC-BY-SA or equivalent license, which would allow the community to edit them, if they ever needed editing in the future. Exactly how they get on the website is not set in stone yet. Currently my thought is that I would type them in myself. If the feature were to become too popular, we might have to go to the proverbial "plan b". Or possibly we could use the gallery, except it would require authors to create PDF files. If we used the gallery, we would not need the license. On the other hand, we would not be able to update the tutorials as needed. Anyway, questions and comments are welcome. Thanks, brynn

Read the docs Manual administrative backup
by Maren Hachmann 14 Dec '19

14 Dec '19

Hi everyone, can you help by volunteering as an administrative backup for the beginners' guide at https://inkscape-manuals.readthedocs.io ? (as there's no official project email address, I'm not sure how else to make sure that someone else has access there, too) What I'd need from you is your readthedocs.org user name. Currently, that position comes without any additional work, as I'm able to take care of what needs to be done. It is only a backup thing, as there's currently a bus factor of 1. I'd like to have at least two other persons in the project registered with it. Thank you! Maren

no information about installing a Windows version without admin rights for me as a user ?
by Pascal Boulerie 13 Dec '19

13 Dec '19

Hello, Good evening, (I found the address of the list on the page Community - https://inkscape.org/community/mailing-lists/ ) First, I can not find a page link labelled as Contact on the Inkscape website. And at the end of the FAQ page, there is no section named Contact. I have not found any information about the installation of Inkscape on a Windows computer as a user without administration right in the FAQ page... > Frequently Asked Questions — for Inkscape Users https://inkscape.org/learn/faq/ There is neither information about non-admin user installation in the Windows page for version 0.92.4 : https://inkscape.org/release/0.92.4/windows/ Yours sincerely, Good night,
