- Keynote: Inkscaping for Fun and Profit
by By Donna Benjamin (Executive Director, Creative Contingencies)
- Inkscape is an Open Source scalable vector graphic (SVG) editor. Forked from SodiPodi in 2003, Version 0.46 was released in late March 2008. Despite the low version number Inkscape is strong, stable, intuitive and ready for Prime Time. Donna will showcase Inkscape art and practical applications, demonstrate Vector Drawing techniques, and provide pointers on where to go to learn more.
- Donna Benjamin runs her own business and procrastinates daily by exploring new features and bugs of the bleeding edge version of Inkscape. She has managed to find legitimate uses of the software for creating web graphics, re-recreating corporate logos and creating posters and banners. Creative Contingencies does customised web application development, hosting, research and meeting facilitation. Donna was a board member of Open Source Industry Australia and was also conference director for linux.conf.au 2008.
