The Libre Graphics Meeting (LGM) is an annual working conference for free software graphics application users and developers. The fifth edition takes place 27-30 May 2010 in Brussels, Belgium. Teams from GIMP, Inkscape, Blender, Krita, Scribus, Hugin, Open Font Library and many other graphics projects gather to improve their software and discuss new ideas for interoperability and shared standards.
We aim to raise 10.000$ to help cover travel costs for volunteer
developers and presenters that would otherwise be unable to journey to Belgium. Support the development of a Free, Libre and Open Source application-ecosystem and make a donation!
All donations are tax deductible for US taxpayers. Larger donations from corporations and individuals can be done through this website or contact us directly at lgm@gnome.org

This campaign has ended, no more pledges can be accepted.

The conference is already over, sorry. You can try applying next year. We haven’t decided on the venue yet, however. Could be Vietnam, Singapore, Brazil or Canada.

Wow! That was just awesome! this was my first time at the conference and may I just say-congratulations! It was time for the young developers to do more than writing science essays on such topics,because it seems quite obvious to me that our future entirely depends on us-young and quick-thinking!I believe that you guys made a huge step by helping all those wishing to contribute their knowledge to come,as we all know-money can sometimes be an obstacle-if you don’t have any)so,one more time-thanks!!

Many artists and other creative professionals today use personal computers rather than traditional media. Using graphic art software may be more efficient than rendering using traditional media by requiring less hand–eye coordination, requiring less visualization skill, and utilizing the computer’s quicker automated rendering functions to create images. Thanks.

I tried flipping between two named styles on a text frame and found that the “CAB” attribute of the ITEXT node changes. http://www.profischnell.com However, it is not easily apparent to me that the individual Style nodes have a unique numeric attribute which is being referenced in CAB or elsewhere. Where can I get detailed print-ready information on the Scribus XML format?
