Google has generously sponsored FLOSS Manuals and Inkscape to run a Book Sprint in Paris, July 5-12. We have people coming from France, Netherlands, USA and Russia to work on a new book on Inkscape.

If you are in Paris at this time and willing to participate, please join inkscape-docs@ mailing list and introduce yourself. Of course, you can help us being located in your hometown in just any part of Earth. We have also established an IRC channel (#booksprint at irc.freenode.net) to make remote communication easier.

FLOSS Manuals and Inkscape project first met at Open Translation Tools 2007 conference in Zagreb. We are happy to bring our collaboration with FM to this level and expect seing translations of the new manual rapidly appearing.

It was the first day of the Book Sprint today, and we worked on streamlining the contents.
