Re: [Inkscape-docs] more on writing extensions

Thanks for asking :)

Keep this documented along with the link to Jerry's article, so you can
hand this over to whomever will polish the page when they have the time.

Kind regards,
 Maren

 Hi Brynn,


 good work :)
 Just a quick request: Could you ask Jerry for dual-licencing (GPLv3+
 and
 CC-By-SA), please?

 Thank you!

 Kind Regards,
 Maren

Re: [Inkscape-docs] Inkscape Website Help

[Martin Owens]

Dear Srravya,

I saw your message on launchpad. Rather than comment there on that bug
report I've emailed you directly here.

(hopefully this email address is right)

We'd love to have your help on the inkscape website. Please provide some
more details and links to past work or a profile page. You can also
register for an account on http://staging.inkscape.org where we practice
using the website content management system.

Thanks for wanting to help,

Best Regards, Martin Owens
Website Administrator

Hi Maren,
Sounds like no problem for dual license:

"Hey, Brynn. Absolutely, those are fine. GPL 3+ and CC-BY-SA 3.0+

Jerry"

All best,
brynn

 Hi again Everyone,
 I've received a positive reply from the 1 article author (Jerry
 Stratton) I was able to contact.  He says he doesn't feel qualified to
 do
 any of the writing himself, but says we can quote his articles.  Below
 I've
 quoted from his reply, so I don't get any details wrong about the
 licensing,
 etc.
 So if Xavi, or whoever ends up working on it, maybe some of
 Jerry's
 articles will be helpful  :-)

 All best,

 will
 be
 fine.
