GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 435790
New product request: passepartout
Last modified: 2007-05-13 21:08:19 UTC
The passepartout project is currently shifting resources towards the GNOME project to attract more developers. The code is already hosted at svn.gnome.org (though I think we need to re-import the repository) and now we'd like to have a bugszilla product as well: https://lists.stacken.kth.se/pipermail/passepartout/2007-April/000023.html Passepartout is a GTK+ based DTP application: http://www.stacken.kth.se/project/pptout/ We're currently planning the long-awaited release 0.7.0.
Sven, I'm not a developer myself, but passepartout could have more developers contributing to the project, if the code were released under the GNU GPL license (I might be wrong as well). And probably replacing Ghostscript with cairo might be a good idea for future versions. Thanks for your work with passepartout, Pablo

The current license is a lot less restrictive than the GPL, I don't see this as a blocking thing. > And probably replacing Ghostscript with cairo might be a good idea for future > versions. That's one of the planned things, indeed.
Added. Please go to http://bugzilla.gnome.org/editproducts.cgi?action=edit&product=passepartout&classification=Other and add at least one component (necessary before any bugs can be filed and before the browse.cgi page will become active). Please use passepartout-maint@gnome.bugs as the default assignee and default qa contact for any components, and have those wanting to watch passepartout bugs go to http://bugzilla.gnome.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email and add that email address to their comma separated "Users to watch" list.
