To have a template available as sif file, which can be imported like any other file. But some exported controls could be available as additional parameters of that imported file.

Could both Carlosā€™s presentation and Konstantinā€™s workshop be recorded on video? Iā€™m asking because Iā€™m not sure the organizers will records everything (in the 2012 videos page it says ā€œThe videos of some of the talks are now on youtubeā€). The recordings would be great material for James the UX guy. ---

I wonā€™t do a ā€œpresentationā€. Iā€™ll organize a ā€œBirth of Featherā€ that would be difficult to record. Anyway Iā€™ll bring a video and photo camera. ~G ---

Hi! The [program page](http://libregraphicsmeeting.org/2013/program/) promises that ā€œall talks will be archived and streamedā€. Iā€™m not sure about the workshops and BoF, thoughā€¦ Need to ask organizers. ---

Hi! I have contacted the LGM organizers and they replied that there are no plans to officially stream/record workshops and BOFs. I have no influence to change the situation, but you can write to organizers directly (see contacts here ā€“ [http://libregraphicsmeeting.org/2013/helping-out/](http://libregraphicsmeeting.org/2013/helping-out/)). Youā€™re not the only one who asking the workshops to be recorded, so a few such requests from different people might convince them to think about that. šŸ™‚ ---

Will you be talking to the guys from Inkscape at LGM about improving cross comaptibility with Synfig and Inkscape?Aka Sif to SVG and SVG to Sif convertors? I think that will be very important I find inkscape much easier for vectroring but would like sif files to be able to be converted to SVGs. ---
