Description : Application to convert svg to html5 interactive pictures
Source : http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/x/xia/
Dear Debian developpers,
Xia is a software which converts svg files into full html5
interactive pictures. The building of the source package
generates two binary packages:
1. "xia-converter" which is the software itself;
2. "xia" which is an Inkscape plugin and which enables
to launch xia-converter directly inside Inkscape
The documentation of Xia is available for downloading on
this page:
http://images-actives.crdp-versailles.fr/beta/index_en.html
Sorry, at the present time there is a pdf documentation
in french only but the english version is coming soon.
However, in the page above, you can find also a 7-minutes
"getting started" video in english.
I would be very happy if the software could integrate the
official Debian repositories. Obviously, in case this
package did not exactly respect the Debian policy, I would
accept with pleasure (and with great interest) any remarks
which could help me correct my mistakes.
Thank you in advance for your attention.
Regards.
François Lafont
