Inkscapril Discussion
What is Inkscapril? The concept is to designate one Month each year (April) when everyone, Developers, Supporters and Users all rally around a common goal. This could be Donations, such as, awareness and/or raising funds. It could be a competition for a new Splash Screen Image. Anything that requires the whole Inkscape Community to come together! People love to get behind a good hashtag (#inkscapril). It would be a great way to build hype and interest in a common goal.
This year the Hackfest is in March and @ryangorley is attending Scale. These are two great opportunities for us to show the wider community what goes on in the background and why we need donations and also ongoing donations (annual subscriptions etc).
I believe we could really capitalise on these events, using them as a way to promote the need for Donations under a united flag of awareness... inkscapril
We need to unite all our social outlets with a common message, to encourage Users to be proud to donate, knowing why they have donated, where the money goes and how it will be used. (linking back to information from Hackfest and Scale).
Please chime in with ideas, thoughts, suggestions...
