There is currently no documentation due to the -fact that orthogonal connectors are being worked on as well as other features -such as connector crossing avoidance. Once these features are present, -documentation will be added for the interface. At the same time, the build -system will be cleaned up to use the configure/automake tools, and the first -"offical" release of libavoid will be made. +libavoid is written and maintained by Michael Wybrow, a member of the +Adaptive Diagrams and Documents lab at Monash University, Australia. -libavoid is currently used in the prototype research diagram editor "Dunnart": - http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~mwybrow/dunnart/ -As well as the professional open-source vector graphics editor "Inkscape": - http://www.inkscape.org/ +libavoid is available under the terms of open-source GNU Lesser General Public +License v2.1.
