Oh my! I see... so the forum we have today was created by someone outside of the project team and became very popular. I see. Well... in this case never mind. I don't want to disturb everyone with this then... just thought that someone forgot to put the link to the forum since there is so much activity in there.

Let's pray for a peaceful and civilized solution soon then.

Thanks!

Indeed, InkscapeForum.com is the de facto official forum.  It was removed from
the links on the Community page (a couple or 3 years ago) because it came to
light that except for spam control, there is no other significant management of
the forum (just loyal and dedicated members, helping Inkscape users, day in and
day out).  In my  opinion, it screams to be updated.  We have no access to its
server.

The single owner/admin has twice said he will provide the forum to become
community managed.  And now that the Inkscape project has it's own server, a new
forum has been installed, and is ready and waiting for him to deposit the
databases and other files.  I guess we've been waiting around 4 or 5 months?

I'm not sure what we're going to do, but I guess it's probably time to address
it, and decide what "Plan B" is going to be.  Just my opinion though.

Certainly if it's databases are used to start the new official forum, it will be
well-linked from the website!

All best,

Hi Guys,

I am a long time inkscape user but I just recently found the forum. Maybe it is
just me but isn't it possible for us to include the forum
(www.inkscapeforum.com) in one of the main menus of the Inkscape website? (maybe
under the option "community" of under the option "learn"?)

There such a rich wealth of knowledge and so many active discussions that I feel
like I have rediscovered this application today altogether!

What do you think?

Regards,
