- Security fix: 'extPath', 'imgPath', 'extIconsPath', 'canvgPath', 'langPath', 'jGraduatePath', and 'jspdfPath' were not being prevented - Breaking change: Rename "svgutils.js" to "utilities.js" (make in conformity with JSDoc module naming convention) - Breaking change: Rename "svgedit.js" to "namespaces.js" (to make clear purpose and avoid confusing with editor) - Breaking change: Rename "jquery-svg.js" to "jQuery.attr.js" - Breaking change: Rename "jquery.contextMenu.js" to "jQuery.contextMenu.js" - Breaking change: Rename "jquery.jpicker.js" to "jQuery.jPicker.js" - Breaking change: Rename "JQuerySpinBtn.css" to "jQuery.SpinButton.css" - Breaking change: Rename "JQuerySpinBtn.js" to "jQuery.SpinButton.js" (to have file name more closely reflect name) - Breaking change: Rename "jquery.svgicons.js" to "jQuery.svgIcons.js" - Breaking change: Rename "jquery.jgraduate.js" to "jQuery.jGraduate.js" - Breaking change: Rename "pathseg.js" to "svgpathseg.js" (as it is a poyfill of SVGPathSeg) - Breaking change: Rename `addSvgElementFromJson()` to `addSVGElementFromJson` for consistency - Breaking change: Rename `changeSvgContent()` to `changeSVGContent()` for consistency - Breaking change: Have `exportPDF` resolve with `output` and `outputType` rather than `dataurlstring` (as type may vary) - Breaking change: Rename `extensions/mathjax/MathJax.js` to `extensions/mathjax/MathJax.min.js` - Breaking change: Avoid recent change to have editor ready callbacks return Promises (we're not using and advantageous to keep sequential) - Breaking change: Avoid recent addition of locale-side function in ext-imagelib for l10n - Breaking change: Change name of ext-arrows.js from `Arrows` to `arrows` for sake of file path (not localized anyways). - Breaking change: Change `addlangData` extension event to `addLangData` for consistency with method name - Breaking change: Have `readLang` return lang and data but do not call `setLang` - Fix: Have general locales load first so extensions may use - Fix: Provide `importLocale` to extensions `init` so it may delay adding of the extension until locale data loaded - Fix: Ensure call to `rasterExport` without `imgType` properly sets MIME type to PNG - Fix: Wrong name for moinsave - Update: Update WebAppFind per new API changes - Enhancement: Make `setStrings` public on editor for late setting (used by `ext-shapes.js`) - Enhancement: Add `extensions_added` event - Enhancement: Add `message` event (Relay messages including those which have been been received prior to extension load) - Enhancement: Allow SVGEdit to work out of the box--avoid need for copying sample config file. Should also help with Github-based file servers - Enhancement: Allow avoiding "name" in extension export (just extract out of file name) - Enhancement: Add stack blur to canvg by default (and refactoring it) - Enhancement: Return `Promise` for `embedImage` (as with some other loading methods) - Enhancement: Supply `importLocale` to `langReady` to facilitate extension locale loading - Enhancement: Recover if an extension fails to load (just log and otherwise ignore) - Enhancement: More i18n of extensions (also fixed issue with some console warnings about missing locale strings); i18nize Hello World too - Enhancement: Allowing importing of locales within `addLangData` - npm: Update devDeps - Docs: Migrate copies of all old wiki pages to docs/from-old-wiki folder; intended for a possible move to Markdown, so raw HTML (with formatting) was not preserved, though named links had their absolute URL links preserved - Docs: Begin deleting `SvgCanvas.md` as ensuring jsdoc has replacements - Docs: Add Edtior doc file for help to general users - Docs: Clarify/simplify install instructions - npm/Docs (JSDoc): Add script to check for overly generic types - Docs (JSDoc): For config/prefs and extension creating, link to tutorials (moved tutorials to own directory to avoid recursion problems by jsdoc) - Docs (JSDoc): Add modules (upper case for usual main entrance files or regular names) - Docs (JSDoc): Fill out missing areas; indicate return of `undefined`; consistency with `@returns` - Docs (JSDoc): Add our own layout template to support overflow - Docs (JSDoc): Use cleverLinks and disallow unknown tags - Docs (JSDoc): Insist on "pedantic" flag; put output directory in config - Docs (JSDoc): Use more precise Integer/Float over number, the specific type of array/function/object - Docs (JSDoc): Use `@throws`, `@enum`, `@event`/`@fires`/`@listens` - Docs: Generally update/improve docs (fixes #92) - Docs: Update links to `latest` path (Avoid needing to update such references upon each release) - Docs: 80 chars max - Refactoring: Drop code for extension as function (already requiring export to be an object) - Refactoring: Object destructuring, `Object.entries`, Object shorthand, array extras, more camelCase variable names - Refactoring: Add a `Command` base class - Refactoring: Simplify svgicons `callback` ready detection - Refactoring: Put `let` or `const` closer to scope - Refactoring: Remove unneeded `delimiter` from regex escaping utility - Refactoring: Clearer variable names - Refactoring: Use (non-deprecated) Event constructors - Testing: Use new Sinon

Below is information provided.
What is the purpose of SVG-edit?
SVG-edit is an online vector graphics editor that uses only JavaScript, HTML5, CSS and SVG (i.e. no server-side functionality). It is designed to be embedded in a web application (Wiki, CMS, Groupware, etc.)
What are its main functions?
Supports all modern browsers
Integrated with many applications
Stores drawing data in SVG
Free-hand drawing, Lines, Polylines, Rectanges, etc.
Layers
And many more: https://code.google.com/p/svg-edit/#Features
What does SVG-edit do that other SVG tools do not?
Most SVG tools are desktop applications, which makes it more complicated to collaborate.
I am pretty sure it's the Free and Open Source (FOSS) web-based SVG editor with the most features. If there are other projects out there with more / different features, please do get in touch with us so we may collaborate. We have developed an SVG test suite that would surely be useful to you too!
It's also likely the Free and Open Source (FOSS) web-based SVG editor with the most contributors.
Who developed it?
According to Ohloh.net "SVG-edit has had 1,749 commits made by 36 contributors representing 50,115 lines of code" https://www.ohloh.net/p/svg-edit
Is SVG-edit an open source or commercial product? If it is commercial, Can you provide a price range per-seat?
SVG-edit is Free and Open Source software, and community-managed. The license is MIT. So you can embed in your commercial or FOSS project.
How important is SVG, from your perspective?
It is very important to have standards for all data formats, as much as possible. If the tool you use to generate SVG stops being developed, you maintain your assets and can move to a more modern tool. It also protects you against vendor lock-in.
Can you provide some screen shots or URLs with visuals of SVG-edit?
Here is demo of the stable version: http://svg-edit.googlecode.com/svn/branches/2.6/editor/svg-editor.html
Here is a demo of the upcoming version: http://svg-edit.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/editor/svg-editor.html
Any other comments about SVG-edit?
SVG-edit is a community-managed project with a open contribution policy. Join us in making it as good as it can possibly be! We have community conference calls and want to have as many contributors as possible. See: https://code.google.com/p/svg-edit/wiki/HowToParticipate
We also have a project to get SVG-edit used on Wikipedia for over half million SVG images there.
There have been 113 000 downloads on Google Code since 2009: https://code.google.com/p/svg-edit/downloads/list Also, SVG-edit is embedded in other projects, and we have no way of tracking how many downloads there.
Who is your employer and what is your title there?
I (Marc Laporte) am a volunteer project administrator for SVG-edit, along with others. We do have some consultants which are available to integrate SVG-edit in your application or for adding additional functionality (and let's work together so those features are added to SVG-edit!)
