Website: 2 new news, and two more to come
by Maren Hachmann 10 Mar '21

10 Mar '21

Hello, fellow website translators! These are busy times! For all the organizing, I forgot to notify you all of the new article that came along with the choosing of the finalists. Duarte and Diego worked on their translations even without being prompted - thank you, guys! So, these are our current, not-yet-announced-for-translation news articles on the website: https://inkscape.org/news/2021/03/01/congratulations-top-5-finalists-11-abo… This one is from today, hot off the presses: https://inkscape.org/news/2021/03/09/ozantliukys-art-bot-wins-hearts-votes-… Within the next couple days (probably tomorrow), there are going to be two more articles, one about our virtual booth at Chemnitzer Linux-Tage, and one about Inkscape as a GSOC project in 2021. Thank you all for your help! Kind Regards Maren

Calling German-speaking Inkscape Community members (and those who don't mind to communicate in English with German Linux users)!
by Maren Hachmann 01 Feb '21

01 Feb '21

Hi everyone, the Inkscape project is going to host a virtual booth/stand at the Chemnitzer Linuxtage, on March 13 and 14 this year! We have already gathered a small booth team of 4, possibly 5, but the CLT (Chemnitzer Linuxtage) are all-day events and we could use your help answering user questions about how to work with the program, how to contribute to it and about what is going on in the Inkscape community. We might even do some short, up to 20min topic-focused sessions, if someone would like to organize (one of) them. So, if you're a developer, a forum member, a regular user support provider in our chat channels, an Inkscape translator, or are contributing to the project more or less regularly in any other way, and you have some time available to spend helping the Inkscape project on that weekend in March, please introduce yourself at the GitLab issue report where we're discussing the event organization! We would also be glad to have someone on board from any of the maker labs or similar communities, who are proficient in helping with maker topics, or who can demo something interesting in a short session (or both :) ). Or if you'd like to present the top 10 Inkscape extensions that people must know about, or do a quick drawing session, or want to tell people how to compile Inkscape and get started with development or ... whatever you can think of. ****************** Please get in contact with us as soon as possible and find more info at https://gitlab.com/inkscape/vectors/general/-/issues/192 Let us know how you can help make the booth an interesting place for visitors to drop by! ****************** We're going to have a meeting with all those interested in about a week, so it would be good to hear from you before that. I'm going to announce the meeting time in a separate message. Hope to see you - and if you are not able to join us at the booth, consider visiting us there! Kind Regards Maren
