I think it's a good idea. We can add extensions directly to the gallery
system if we want to organise them with licenses, confirmed downloads
etc. But we might not be ready for this in the live version. But it's
where I'd like t get us to, so we an encourage extension makers to
upload their versions.

For now we can record all the data on a normal cms page.

Martin,

Hi Brynn,

yes, of course, go ahead. Don't let my unavailability keep you from
doing things that make a lot of sense ;). I'll be able to answer short
technical questions, if there's a need (and if I know how to find out
the answer).

Another way I could imagine to test the extensions would be to just
install them and try them out, or ask around in the forums.
I can imagine that writing to their authors might not yield a very high
reply quota, so you'd need a 'Plan B'. Or you could just do this in
parallel, of course ;)

@Martin, would it also make sense to you if Brynn works on this?

Kind regards,
 Maren

Hi Maren,
Well if we aren't going to be working together, going through the 
wiki to identify pages which need either documentation, moving to the 
website, or worthy of going on To-Do List page, then maybe I could work on 
this?
I could contact all those in the Repository, asking a few questions, 
such as which version their extensions work, and what kind of license, and 
are they interested in having it listed on the website or some kind of 
official repository.
Or if there is a better way to approach it?  Well anyway, I'll just 
say that I'd be glad to work on this, if it is needed.

All best,
brynn

Re: [Inkscape-docs] publish Community To-Do List page

2015-07-10 Thread Maren Hachmann
Hi Brynn,

yes, extensions would be very valuable indeed.

One thing we would have to do though, before we list them, is to check
each one on the list for compatibility with the latest Inkscape version,
or at least find out which one is the last version with which they are
compatible. Also we will probably not need to list those that come with
Inkscape (when 0.93 is released, we may have to add a few, then, see
Roadmap: http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Roadmap).

Many extensions are no longer / not well maintained. And now, with the
changes to the extensions function calls in 0.91, many that worked for
years for 0.48.x don't work any more.

If their licence allows it, we could also consider to upload the working
ones to the website, and add a link to where they come from. Or better
to contact the author and ask them to upload to the website. Some kind
of 'central repository' would make it very easy for users to find what
they need.
But always, always we need to add a hint about the Inkscape version they
are known to work with, if we don't want to frustrate our users.

I think the developers have also been considering (as a far away
feature) a central repository that can be accessed from inside Inkscape,
like the plugins for Firefox (oh - that's the text from that Wiki page ;) ).

About the name: I don't know why Martin chose to call them 'Addons'. In
German, I just called them the same as the menu entry in Inkscape (there
isn't too much choice in German anyway, unless I want to use the English
term).

Regards,
 Maren

Re: [Inkscape-docs] publish Community To-Do List page

2015-07-10 Thread Brynn
Hi Maren,
I just thought of a wiki page that might need to be moved to the 
website.  I often consult this page:

 http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/ExtensionsRepository

as often as twice weekly, sometimes.  Almost always I'm trying to help 
someone who posted in a forum, but occasionally I'm looking for myself.
Related to extensions repository, I'm trying to make a list of as 
many Inkscape extensions as I can find, which are not listed here or on the 
Addons page of the website, which I plan to keep on my website (like the 
tutorials).  But of course I would be glad to share it, or even update that 
wiki page, if it would be appropriate.  Perhaps those who created the 
extensions had some reason not to list their extension there?  I'm not sure, 
but I'll be glad to add them to the list, if it's appropriate.
One more related question.  Why is the Addons page called "Addons" 
and not "Extensions"?

Thanks :-)
brynn

Sorry, I somehow sent an empty message.  The mouse got away from me, I 
guess.

I don't really have anything to add.

I just thought the page can't be useful if it's just sitting there not 
published.  So whatever needs to be done to get it out there.

Thanks,
brynn

Re: [Inkscape-docs] publish Community To-Do List page

2015-07-07 Thread Maren Hachmann
Hi Brynn,

I've just updated your list a little.

- added a link to the corresponding bug reports for those
pages-to-create. Maybe answering to a bug report on lp has a lower entry
threshold than posting to this list. I only remembered we had bug
reports for this when I looked through them recently.

- as per Martin's request, I separated out the pages to represent a
single task each.

- then there was the discussion about finding translators French-English
for the manual written by Elisa and Nico. I added that, too, while it's
currently not officially part of the Inkscape project, I'd think we
should do what we can to support their effort.

- Also added a link to the contribute page in the intro text, so people
who do not find a task that fits for them in the list can access more
options easily.

- the empty rows are now gone (we can insert a new one easily when we
need it), and there's an alternating background color, so finding each
line is easier

Are there any more pages from the Wiki that deserve to be updated and
transferred to inkscape.org?

Regards,
 Maren

[Inkscape-docs] publish Community To-Do List page

2015-07-07 Thread Brynn
Hi Friends,
I was waiting to publish the new To-Do List page, because it sounded 
like Maren and I were going to add more items to it, related to removing 
user-facing pages from the wiki.  But that seems to be on hold, for some 
reason.
So I wonder if it should be published, so that other people can 
already start using it, to get their own projects listed?

Thanks,
brynn
