Hi everyone, I hope you the switch to the new mailing list worked for you, and you can read me now :) *waves* Who's here? 1. We've got a new article on the website - the second one for our sponsor VectorStock. It's available here: https://inkscape.org/news/2019/06/18/thanks-vectorstock-its-continued-commi… 2. And the extensions page has been updated with a new link, see attached image (let's see how well attachments work here): https://inkscape.org/develop/extensions/ There are a couple more website news articles in the making, and updates for the 'getting started' and the new 'Shop' page pending. These aren't ready for translation yet, though. @Finlay - if you read this: Do you have time for that article translation above? Happy translating! Maren

Contribute to translate

Hi, I'm a college student from South Korea who is studying about open source software. I'm trying to help with translating inkscape tutorials as well as man pages to Korean. So I found out I gotta make a new header and footer svg file to make the Korean ver. of tutorial. I'm wondering if there is a specific guide line for header and footer because I found that some language versions were slightly different from others. Also I would be grateful if you have some tips about translating tutorials to new language.

Hi Joshua, thanks! I'm looking forward to your first merge request on gitlab :) Hope you'll catch someone to support you with the Swedish a bit, and let us know when you have any questions (best in the chat channel).

Hi Gellért, the release had been planned for early June, but it very much looks as if that date is not going to hold. Current estimates according to Bryce are 'late summer or early fall'. (https://chat.inkscape.org/channel/team_vectors?msg=sXgLg4w52ob9yAvFi) Hope that helps - no guarantees for anything, as always...

Hi Joshua, great - the Swedish translation for the program hasn't seen any updates for over a year, and seems to be in a generally neglected state - so I think this would be the best place to start. The current status for Inkscape master (soon Inkscape 1.0) for Swedish is: 35% (3019/8500) translated 44% (3787) fuzzy 21% (1785) not translated 38% (14498/37719) of words translated So there's a lot to do! Is there anyone else in your class or course who would be able/like to help you? If there isn't anyone, you could also try to contact one of the previous translators of the file, to get some feedback - the non-Swedish speakers here can help with logistics and with Inkscape, but not with Swedish. It's always good to have someone else to talk things over with. The po file is available at https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/tree/master/po The Wiki link (http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Translation_information) lists some suitable translation software. Are you familiar with git / gitlab already? (I'm sending this to the translators' list, please make sure you reply to it, too.) For quick help with terms in Inkscape, you can also contact us in the chat at https://chat.inkscape.org/channel/team_translation .

Website: FAQ updated
by Maren Hachmann 25 Mar '19

Hi website translators, we've had an update on the FAQ, describing the current status of CMYK in Inkscape and listing some possible workarounds. https://inkscape.org/learn/faq/#how-create-graphics-cmyk-color-space-inksca… The item about Inkscape 1.0 (something along the lines of 'will there be an 1.0 and how will it look') has been removed, as we're getting closer to the real 1.0 with each day. I hope you all have a nice week ahead of you, Kind Regards Maren
