Sometime back I remember seeing something about how Inscape was planning
to merge
with/share code with the open source version of Xara extreme. I was
just curious,
whatever happened to this idea?
Yes, I'd be interested as well in knowing what the developers have done along these lines. It seemed at the time that there was a genuine effort to achieve some sort of sharing and mutual benefit. Did this happen or are the two projects just too far along their respective paths to allow easy cross-fertilisation?
I notice that the Inkscape Paint Bucket idea is getting envious mention by members of the Xara community, and that some people are worried about Xara losing its appeal. While it has speed, people also note that some programs such as Inkscape are making impressive gains in these areas as well.
