LGM: About two weeks left for entering your talk/workshop submission!
by Maren Hachmann 01 Feb '20

01 Feb '20

Hi everyone, this is a reminder that you can still submit a proposal for a talk, lightning talk, hackathon, Birds-of-a-feather meeting or workshop for this year's Libre Graphics Meeting. LGM will take place in Rennes (Brittany, France) from May 26-29 2020. The deadline for your submissions is February 17th. More info about your submissions: https://libregraphicsmeeting.org/2020/en/program.html Info about the venues: https://libregraphicsmeeting.org/2020/en/venue.html The main focus of this year's event is 'Getting Things Done'. The organizers explain that this "means explaining how you manage to attract more contributors, how you manage the tasks of development, fixing bugs, the general directions that you want to take your project, and how you interact to accomplish this. You might even talk about ideas you have but have not yet implemented. Part of Getting Things Done means sharing ideas and methods with each other and with artists." They are looking for: " * Presentations attracting new contributors to projects * Information about how your project "gets things done" * Productive workshops to improve and extend software * Technical presentations and workshops for developers * Showcases of excellent work made using Libre Graphics tools " There's also an Inkscape Hackfest planned to take place either during, before or after LGM, so stay tuned ;-) Maren

Hello. I'm Lara Puente, student of Advertising and Public Relations career at Universidad Complutense Madrid. At present I'm working on a proyecto about Inkscape. Could you please help me with some questions about Inkscape? For the moment I need to know how Inkscape is announced to make itself known. Perhaps in some magazines or banner on internet. Or even with SEO or SEM on internet. Thank you. Best regards Lara

To see the complete gallery with all entries: https://inkscape.org/gallery/=about-screen-contest/contest-for-10/ Thank you everyone! --------------------- Explanation: Ranking: Put the numbers in order of preference, so '32154' would mean 3 is your first choice, 2 is your second choice etc. You don't have to rank all numbers if you don't want to. The system that is used for determining the winner is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instant-runoff_voting, using the package openSTV from Ubuntu repositories. Ties will be broken randomly. Name or nickname: The name you usually use in your communication in the Inkscape project, required in case you change your vote or forgot that you had already voted. Contribution to Inkscape: As we have decided to allow voting from Inkscape contributors (as opposed to C++ developers and translators in the AUTHORS file only), please help us with determining your eligibility for voting by telling us what you do or did in the Inkscape project (very short, only main area, e.g. 'writing Inkscape code', 'writing website code', 'writing news articles', 'setting up infrastructure', 'translating', 'forum moderation', 'bug triage', 'board member' etc.). ----------------- PS: For future votes, we're thinking of using the system on the website. Consider joining one or more teams [0] there, and to add a description to your user profile that outlines what you do here a bit, in preparation for that :) 0: https://inkscape.org/teams/
