'''Copy/Pasting'''

* "Paste Style" makes some things vanish '''(needs bug tracker link)'''

'''Filters'''

* Inkscape's "bevels","Non-realistic 3D Shaders","Ridges", "Scatter", "Shadows and Glows" filter sets produce objectively terrible results, and should be redone to match the quality of other Inkscape filters, or removed from the default Inkscape set. '''(needs bug tracker link)'''

'''Fills/Stroke'''

* Selecting multiple line widths offers a percent value in the stroke width spin box (as it should), however, when the spin button is used, the value of 100% does not change, and the stroke values jump to a lower value. '''(needs bug tracker link)'''

== Moini's list: Frequently reported problems in forums etc. and my own pet bugs ==

* '''Performance''':
** Objects dialog slows Inkscape down so much that its penalty outweighs its advantage (usually only needed when you have many objects in the drawing - but then Inkscape becomes unusably slow)
** Slow ungrouping can freeze Inkscape for hours (and some users wait for it to finish)

* '''Usability/UX'''
** Find a solution for too-wide toolbars that do not allow the user to adjust options properly (e.g. text tool only allows to access preset values for kerning and letter rotation)
** Activate autosave by default
** Consider removing Cairo PNG from export options (unless it's useful for something?) or add a hint that it's *not* the same as PNG. It confuses people.
** Add some more obvious hint when people are drawing invisible objects (if possible somehow). Maybe highlight the indicator fields at the bottom or something...
** Make more keyboard shortcuts configurable (e.g. letter rotation - I guess this is also a G(tk)Action thing?) so they can be used with different keyboard layouts

* '''UI'''
** Font selector drop down for text tool (master) - autoscrolling up / down makes using it awkward, as you can no longer close the dropdown again (instead, it keeps scrolling up)

* '''Crashes'''
** Inkscape could add a crash report to its crash dialog, that would make user reports more useful

* '''Communication'''
** Consider implementing Martin's suggestion for broadcasting important news (needs to be secure, and needs an option to disable)

* '''Nodes'''
** Sometimes nodes duplicate themselves for no reason
** Some extensions open closed paths (https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/202540, has patch, untested)

Fundraising Ideas

2017-06-02T19:41:56Z

CRogers:

This file outlines some thoughts regarding handling of donations and other income for the Inkscape Project.

More ideas:
http://www.nonprofitalliance.org/system/res/25/original/Board_Member_Packet.pdf

= Direct Asks =

== Donation solicitation ==

* We currently already provide a paypal link for visitors to donate to us.

* Ask five to ten people to save all their change for three to five months.

* Invite people to your birthday party and ask that in lieu of gifts they give money to your organization. Encourage members to request donations to their organization as Christmas presents.

* Find out which of your friends (perhaps this is true for you also) work in corporations with matching gift programs. Then ask them to donate and get their gift matched for your organization and ask them to ask their co-workers to donate and get their gifts matched.

* List all your friends who are interested in your organization or
similar organizations. Decide how much you want to ask each one for.
If you are not sure of an amount, use a range. Write to them on your
own stationery, include a brochure from the organization and a return
envelope. Phone those people who don’t respond in two weeks. Some people
will need 10 friends to give $100, and some people need 50 friends to
give $20. Most people will need a combi nation of gifts of $100, $50 and
$25.

* If you or someone you know owns a small business that has regular
customers who receive a catalog or announcements of sales, write them an
appeal letter for the organization. Your letter can say something like,
“You are one of my best customers. As such, I let you know about sales
coming up and good things happening in my store. Today, I want to tell
you about another good thing—what I do when I am not minding the store.”
Then go on to describe the group and ask for a donation. Also post the
letter on your website with a link to Inkscape's paypal page.

== Challenge campaign ==

Set a challenge of raising $1000. Give part of the $1000. Then ask your friends to join you in giving $50, $100, or whatever amount you gave. This is most effective because you are not asking them to do anything you haven’t done.

Challenge gifts can be quite small. Tell people you’ll give $5 for every $25 they give, or will match every $50 gift up to ten gifts. For added suspense, make this challenge during a fundraising event. You or the host can announce, “We now have the Dave Buckstretch Challenge. For the next five minutes, Dave will give $5 for every new member that joins Worthy Cause.”

A very common strategy is to ask for money and give money yourself. These are the basic premises of fundraising - you must ask, you must give. Everything after that involves creativity, imagination and a sense of fun.

* Create a take-off on the “adopt-a-highway” technique by naming budget items of your group as available for adoption. You could develop a flyer that reads, “The following items
have been found near death from negligence and abuse. Won’t you help? $25 per month will ensure that our computer is maintained. $10 0 per month will release our photocopy machine from toiling with no toner and a dying motor. (We can lease a new one.)”

== Ongoing subscriptions ==

* Pledge $28 (or whatever) a month, and get two others to do likewise.

== Conference Booth ==

Print nice donation envelopes to include in our conference booths.
Give some to conservancy to have at their booths.

Send people to events to man booths with the express aim of raising
money and spreading awareness. Maybe do in conjunction with
conservancy?

== Fundraising Events ==

* Get a famous or popular person to do a special event. Watch the costs on this, or you may lose money.

= Products =

== Sales of T-Shirts, Hats, Mugs, etc. ==

* cafepress.com?

* High quality clothing though. Maybe Susan Conklin

* Sell buttons, T-shirts, etc. Distribute to bookstores or novelty shops

* Raffle or contest items signed by inkscape devs at hackfests

== Art auctions / sales ==

* Art donations from artists, sold, and proceeds split

* Ask artists to donate a work to the project, and then have a charity auction for the pieces (including the copyright??) Use the proceeds to fund development projects.

* Art prints auctions

== Printed version of manual ==

== CD's of Inkscape + Open Clip Art Library ==

Sell for $20, split 50/50 with OCAL

= Digital =

== Youtube channel ==

== Affiliations ==

* Amazon 2.5-6.0% commission

* Think of stores or services related to your organization or where a lot of your members shop.
Ask the store to donate a percentage of profits for a certain day or
week, or even forever. You can also explore this with mail-order
firms. Then you advertise widely to friends, family and members that
Joe’s Florist will give 2% of each sale during Valentine’s weekend to
anyone identifying themselves with your group.

= Services =

== Art services ==

* Logothon - we enlist our users in producing logos for other open source projects or companies. 50% goes to artist, 50% to Inkscape.

* Business Card Designs - Recruit our artists to do business card design services, with a portion of the proceeds returned to the project. Serve as a broker to match design needs with artists.

* If you have an artistic bent, offer to design greeting cards to specification for organizations or individuals for a fee. If you are good at calligraphy, sell your skills to schools
for graduation announcements, friends for classy but low-cost wedding invitations, or just fun certificates such as “World’s Greatest Dad” for Father’s Day or “Outstanding Friend.” Create unique Halloween costumes or masks. Donate the proceeds from your artistry.

== Design services ==

== Teaching Classes ==

* Teach a seminar on a topic you know: fundraising, knitting, organi cgardening, organizing, proposal writing, environmental im pact reports, gourmet cooking, dog grooming, starting your own business. Charge $50-75 per person, with a goal of 15 to 20 people. Either absorb the cost of promotion, or have enough participants to cover it.

* Fundathon - call for donations to increase the fund by $5k

== Organize a service raffle. ==

Get four people (one can be you) to donate a simple but valuable service
that many people could use and sell raffle tickets for $10-$20
each. Keep the price a little high so you don’t have to sell so many and
so that the buyers have a higher chance of winning. Services can include
childcare for a weekend or for any weekend night two weekends in a row;
one day of housecleaning; yard work; house painting (interior or exterior), etc. Sell the tickets to neighbors, work mates and to other
board members. Encourage people to buy several by offering discounts for
multiple purchases, such as one for $10, 2 for $20, but 3 for $25, 4 for
$35, 5 for $40. If you are really bold or live in a more affluent area,
or have few friends, sell the tickets for $50 each. A full day of
housecleaning for $50 is a real bargain, and buyers have a high chance
of winning with fewer tickets sold

== Hold an “I’m Not Afraid” Auction ==

You can do this with just a few friends or hundreds of people if you
have enough items to auction. You survey a few people (and use your own
common sense) about what things need to be done in their home or office
that they are afraid of or would really rather not do. This is different
from a service auction - there has to be an element of dread in the
activity. For example, some people cannot wash their windows because
their apartment is too high or the second story of their house is too
high and they suffer from vertigo. If you are not afraid of heights,
you can sell your window-washing service (bring a sturdy ladder). This
goes for drain cleaning, minor roof repairs, antenna fixing, etc. Or,
if you are unafraid of cockroaches or spiders, you can offer to clean
out that dark corner or garage or basement for a small fee. Snakes can
be found in gardens and woodsheds, but maybe that doesn’t bother
you. The problem doesn’t need to be as serious as phobia. How about
allergies to dust, pollen, weeds? If you don’t have them , you can mow,
sweep, clean for a fee. By marketing it as an “I’m Not Afraid” Auction,
you also have the option for people to name something they need done to
a group of volunteers, and then have a volunteer say, “I’m not afraid
to do that.” In that case , you will need a set fee for service.

== Administrivia Auction ==

Similar to the suggestion above is the “Details Auction.” This is for all your friends whose desks
are overflowing with papers or who can’t get their receipts in order to
give to the tax preparer or who complain t hey can never find
anything. If you are a well-organized person, offer to clean up their
desk, get their Rolodex in order, file their papers, etc. If you like
to shop, sell that to people who don’t and do their holiday shopping for
them, or buy birthday, baby shower or niece/nephew presents for
them. Anything that people feel they cannot control is the organized
person’s fundraising dream come true.

= Misc Other Ideas =

* Investment pool funding

* Lead or get someone to lead a nature walk, an architectural tour, a
historic tour, a sailing trip, a rafting trip, or a horseback ride.
Charge $15-$25 per person, or charge $35 and provide lunch. Advertise
the event in the newspaper to draw in people from outside your
organization.

* Sell your frequent flyer miles to friends or
donate them to the organization for a raffle. Watch the rules of the
airline on this, but some airlines let you give away miles, and you may
be able to sell your miles as long as you don’t go through a mileage
broker.

* Get members and friends to include the group for bequests in their wills.

* Solicit small businesses, churches,
synagogues or service clubs for $1000. If you are active in a church or
you own your own business and are involved in business organizations or
service clubs, this can be very effective. You can often raise
$200-$1000 with a simple proposal and oral presentation.

TBD: "To Be Determined"

Budget $13,000. Separate allocation for Inkscape dinner ($600). Venue: Free.

<sup>1</sup> Sponsored by outside organization.

Allocation for attending hackfest:
* Up to $2000 each for Inkscape developers who have contributed for 3+ years and > 200 commits.
* Up to $1500 each for Inkscape developers who have contributed for 2+ years and > 100 commits.
* Up to $1000 each for Inkscape developers who have contributed for 1+ year and > 50 commits.
* Up to $500 each for any Inkscape contributor listed in AUTHORS file with at least 10 commits by Jan 1, 2017.

If your are an active contributor to Inkscape but are NOT in the AUTHORS file (translator, documentor, etc.) we may still be able to provide some funding on a case-by-case basis.

== Travel ==

Attendees seeking reimbursement '''must''' follow [https://gitorious.org/conservancy/policies/raw/75b8894f8586503e5abd23bed84229bbe5c1b7ee:Travel/conservancy-travel-policy.txt?p=conservancy:policies.git;a=blob_plain;f=Travel/conservancy-travel-policy.txt;hb=HEAD SFC travel policy]. Most importantly, take a screen shot of your airfare search. Your ticket must be within $100 of the lowest fare. Keep receipts for transport and lodging. Meal cost and misc. expenses are handled by a per diem and don't require receipts.

=== Transport ===

Google Flights search is probably your best bet. kayak.com and mobissimo.com can also be useful.

There are three airports in Paris: Charles de Gaulle (CDG, normally long-haul flights), Orly (ORY, mostly inter-European flights), and Beauvais (BVA, mostly low-budget airlines). BVA is a bit far from Paris (85km). CDG and ORY are both connected by rail to central Paris.

Paris is also the center of the TGV train network with frequent high-speed connections from London, Brussels, Amsterdam, Geneva, etc.

[http://www.cite-sciences.fr/fr/au-programme/lieux-ressources/carrefour-numerique2/ Carrefour Numérique²] is located inside [http://www.cite-sciences.fr/fr/accueil/ Cité des sciences et de l'industrie] (Floor -1) which is about 15 minutes by Metro line 7 (Porte de la Villette) from central Paris.

=== Hotel ===

CR will be looking into hotels. There are plenty of reasonably priced AirBnB places nearby.

== Reimbursements ==

After the event, forward your receipts to the SFC. You need to also send payment information (name, currency, paypal account or bank information: see travel policy for more details).
