++  <description>
++    <_p>Inkscape is an open source drawing tool with capabilities similar to
++Illustrator, Freehand, and CorelDraw that uses the W3C standard scalable
++vector graphics  format (SVG). Some supported SVG features include
++basic shapes, paths, text, markers, clones, alpha blending, transforms,
++gradients, and grouping. In addition, Inkscape supports Creative Commons
++meta-data, node-editing, layers, complex path operations, text-on-path,
++and SVG XML editing. It also imports several formats like EPS, Postscript,
++JPEG, PNG, BMP, and TIFF and exports PNG as well as multiple vector-based
++formats.</_p>
++
++    <_p>Inkscape's main motivations are to provide the Open Source community
++with a fully W3C compliant XML, SVG, and CSS2 drawing tool emphasizing a
++lightweight core with powerful features added as extensions, and the
++establishment of a friendly, open, community-oriented development
++processes.</_p>
