Hi guys,

I totally missed this list until Rob informed me...
Just a question, is anyone except me using
the svgiconengine branch already?

Bye

I would be interested in giving it a second try.
What do I have to do to make it compile?

One thing I realized is that I possibly use the wrong version of AGG. In the
latest version I use (from 14/11/04), some constants were moved into another
namespace.
So AGG seems to have a little source compatibility problem...

While I am fine with checking out a branch, I would much prefer if I could
use an official released libagg2.
I would like to be able to update external libs without having to play
around with CVS.

I have some code which handles the proper resizing for a given icon size.
It is part of my work trying to get KSVG to render static SVG content.

I am not quite sure if it is useable for svg icon engine, because at least
the old version seems to be a little simple in regards to proper
image size detection...
