Hackfest coming up, donations needed

[brynn]

Hi Friends,
Hackfest 2015 is an opportunity for Inkscape developers to meet face-to-face, for 3 days of intense hacking.  It happens in April, just before the Libre Graphics Meeting on April 29.

Inkscape developers, who live in all parts of the world, need some financial assitance to be able to travel to and attend this year's Hackfest (which meets in Toronto).   Please see this news article on the Inkscape website, and consider making a donation, to help make this important event possible.

For those who might be interested, here is the working "to-do list" for the Hackfest:  http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Hackfest2015_Topics

For those who made donations, or may still be considering donating (I assume would go towards next year's event):  http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Hackfest2015_Attendees

I'm not a programmer, and don't expect to ever be (although I wish I could), but would love to be the so-called "fly on the wall".....would enjoy meeting these leaders in the Inkscape project and community!
