 IMPORTANT: whoever is going to take this package note that we want a team (on

More importantly, and actually relevant, this package has no upstream.
If you take it over, please make sure you can actually code in C.

 Hi Pascal: 
 
 I believe that you mean to orphan the package ipe, right?  Normally,

I meant to record that you were in fact intending to adopt it, but
somehow forgot to type it in.

 As I've mentioned in private email in the past, I'm willing to
 maintain ipe.  I've not uploaded anything yet simply because the
 version of freetype in debian had a debilitating bug.  However, I just
 noticed that freetype has an upload that claims to fix that.

Cool.

 So I'm preparing an upload of ipe.  Consider this message an official

Package: wnpp

Ipe currently has a problem with freetype (#214983)

Steve M. Robbins [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Description: drawing editor for creating figures in PDF or PS formats

 Ipe supports making small figures for inclusion into LaTeX
 documents as well as making multi-page PDF presentations
 Ipe's main features are:
  * Entry of text as LaTeX source code. This makes it easy to enter
mathematical expressions, and to reuse the LaTeX-macros of the main
document.  In the display text is displayed as it will appear in
the figure.
  * Produces pure Postscript/PDF, including the text. Ipe converts the
LaTeX-source to PDF or Postscript when the file is saved.
  * It is easy to align objects with respect to each other (for
instance, to place a point on the intersection of two lines, or to
draw a circle through three given points) using various snapping
modes.
  * Users can provide ipelets (Ipe plug-ins) to add functionality to
Ipe.  This way, Ipe can be extended for each task at hand.
  * The text model is based on Unicode, and has been tested with Korean,
 Chinese, and Japanese.
