Inkscape at Google Summer of Code 2012

April 24, 2012, 6:57 p.m.

We are happy to announce that five Inkscape students will be participating in the Google Summer of Code 2012 program.

• Jan Pulmann will create Python bindings for lib2Geom, the computational geometry library we use.
• Samuel Chase will improve guides management in Inkscape.
• Veronika Irvine will create a new tool for on-canvas tessellation.
• Eugene Lezhnin will improve the way Inkscape works with text and implement some much desired features such as indentation and underlines.
• Cheng Zhang will convert more code to C++. namely SP Event Context.

We wish our students happy coding!
