by Bryce Harrington 08 Jan '07

08 Jan '07

Today Inkscape achieved the 300 point Bug Hunt goal, thanks to work from Bulia Byak, Johan Engelen, Gustav B, and others. The number of critical bugs has dropped to 20. Due to these efforts, we are now ready to move to the next phase of the release cycle.

I notice that due in part to our bug activity, Inkscape has gone up to rank #20 on SourceForge's most active list. Still, there are 30 level-9 critical bugs still open. I don't see any that are absolute release killers, but the fewer of those left in inkscape when we release, the better. Bryce

Bug confirmation needed
by Bryce Harrington 03 Jan '07

03 Jan '07

Hi all, I've added two new categories 'NEEDS CONFIRMATION' and 'NEEDS CONFIRMATION ON SVN HEAD' to our bug tracker, and have begun marking a few bugs that need this. If you have a recent inkscape installation and are on either Win32 or OSX, you can help greatly by seeing if you can recreate these bugs. Please go to this page: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=93438&atid=604306 Search on Category = NEEDS CONFIRMATION ON SVN HEAD, and set the Group to the platform you're on. Also look in Groups 'Any' or 'All Platforms'. Try to recreate the problem, and then please write in the comment section if you could or could not reproduce the problem. Some of these are very, very old bugs, so just having people confirm that the bugs are no longer present would be extremely helpful in enabling us to focus on bugs that really need our attention. Thanks! Bryce

OK, now that looks like a problem in Inkscape. I am using Inkscape 0.43 (Mar 9 2006) on Kubuntu 6.0.6 (Dapper). Inkscape automatically creates the svg as follows: <svg xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" xmlns:cc="http://web.resource.org/cc/" xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" xmlns:svg="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:sodipodi="http://inkscape.sourceforge.net/DTD/sodipodi-0.dtd" xmlns:inkscape="http://www.inkscape.org/namespaces/inkscape" width="744.09448819" height="1052.3622047" id="svg2" sodipodi:version="0.32" inkscape:version="0.43" sodipodi:docbase="/home/sean" sodipodi:docname="test.svg"> Note it does not supply @version but does create @id with value of svg2. -- Sean Wheller Technical Author email: sean@...2075... im: seanwhe@...19... skype: seanwhe cel: +27-84-854-9408 web: http://www.inwords.co.za

Not CAD quality perfection, but good enough for my > purposes. Yeah, that was kind of my backup plan. I just thought that it would be nice to have a procedure which didn't rely of "manual accuracy", if you know what I mean. I've only just noticed that inkscape can be extended using python scripts. I wonder whether inkscape exposes enough of an api to be able to script this particular problem. Time for me to read up on inkscape effects... Jaime

Interesting idea - I've tried it out (with both "Snap nodes to objects", "Snap to object paths" and "Always snap" enabled) but (suprisingly) I still find it very difficult to pin new nodes exactly on the intersection point...
