  Description     : SVG-based graphics editor

Inkscape seeks to become a full featured open source SVG editor.
Derived from the highly popular Sodipodi codebase, Inkscape strives to
build full XML, SVG, and CSS2 compliance, convert the codebase from
C/Gtk to C++/Gtkmm, emphasizes a lightweight core with powerful features
added through an extension mechanism, and promotes friendly, open,
community-oriented development processes.

Features include alpha blending, node editing, svg-to-png export, and
more. We aim for capabilities similar to Illustrator, CorelDraw, Visio,
etc.

I'd like to package the program described above. Since I'm no debian
developer yet, Guido Günter has acknowledged to sponsor me.

Best regards,

Wolfi
