here is the outline for the kate + peter lgm Vienna talk:

intro
- introduce us
- interaction architects
- you know us, we are working on GIMP (for years)
this project,
- internship of Domi, all text handling in GIMP, in progress
- the project structure is our story
text handling vision, point for point
- relate to overall GIMP vision
- the GIMP context
- the GEGL strategy
- input of user needs
- sum up: not contextless nuts-and-bolts discussion
Project-
- functionality- what happens in other packages- what do typographers need?
- scenarios- we did it- they are based on the GIMP user scenarios
- evaluation
Analysis

and then onwards…

 **evaluation
 *Analysis
-**interesting stuff we found out along the way
-**how  we got where we are
-then the hit list:
-#Text
-#* attributes of free text, typography etc (faux bold/italics)
-#* the bounding box
-# the context of heavy image manipulation on top: working with text- editing modes, on-canvas vs.
-#Vector containers
-#*the marriage of the text and the vector object - for example margins- belonging to the text but are only fully applicable when the text is contained
-#*the "text box" is vector container - duh conclusion... but in the GIMP context...
-#warping texts with paths
-#*2 different kinds of path warping, per paragraph
-#*free text vs. boxed text
-# tools: handling the different aspects of the text object they are working on- what is in the text tool (positioning- resizing and moving etc..)
-#*dealing with complex vector shapes
-#*using the bounding box - setting text in complex shapes
-#negative wrapping using vectors
-the end.
