Talk:Sodipodi

Merger proposal 2
I'm proposing the Sodipodi article should be merged into Inkscape (apparently again). There doesn't seem to be anything notable about this piece of software. 24.202.35.184 (talk) 13:53, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
 * The article itself mentions what is notable in SodiPodi. I added refs to claims and removed notability template. I kept the merge template although the same discussion and reasoning for not doing the merge last time still stands. Eldar (talk) 23:42, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't see anything establishing notability in the article or the sources. This was a free software project that was forked from another free software project, not used by very many people, and discontinued within a few years. It's been abandoned for six years. There's literally hundreds of thousands of similar unknown and unused projects on SourceForge. The only notable thing is that Inkscape, which is currently developed and seems to have a user base, has been forked from this project. Which is why I'm proposing the merger. 70.82.134.41 (talk) 18:28, 12 May 2010 (UTC)
 * It was a notable milestone on the road to Inkscape and in the origin of Open Clip Art. This make it historically notable even though currently the program is mostly unused. During its heyday it was also considered part of "Gnome Office" (I'll put that in the page shortly). Eldar (talk) 23:22, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

Discussion list discussion
The sodipodi discussion list had a couple threads in January and February 2005, one titled 'sodipodi = dead?', in which the maintainer wrote:

I have shelved sodipodi for now due to the lack of time and ideas. It may be resurrected, still - if you or anybody here thinks they can go on maintaining it, tell me. I can add you the admins of the project. 

Since then there have only been 7 messages on sodipodi-list.

I am going to indicate on the main page that the code is no longer under active development. Cheakamus 22:31, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Merger
Suggested a merger with Inkscape article in January 2009. There were maybe three people in the discussion but since one was in favour of keeping the article and put in good faith efforts to improve the article and keep it maintained I withdrew the merger proposal. See the Talk:Inkscape for further discussion. -- Horkana (talk) 15:19, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

Not so dead anymore?
I'm not that familiar with the subject matter but I noticed sodipodi's sourceforge page notes code being commited as recently as June '09... --JCrue (talk) 00:55, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Someone's committed to it in the past year ... - David Gerard (talk) 08:48, 23 August 2016 (UTC)
