+      An Open Source vector graphics editor, with capabilities similar to Illustrator,
+      CorelDraw, or Xara X, using the W3C standard Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) file
+      format.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+      Inkscape supports many advanced SVG features (markers, clones, alpha blending,
+      etc.) and great care is taken in designing a streamlined interface. It is very
+      easy to edit nodes, perform complex path operations, trace bitmaps and much more.
+      We also aim to maintain a thriving user and developer community by using open,
+      community-oriented development.
