Should you be interested in exploring or contributing to the project, please visit the project's GitHub page. Ihor's legacy lives on in his project - and the project's development is still active. He will be dearly missed and remembered as a good father and a friend for evermore. He was an extremely motivated person and always worked tirelessly. His life’s dream was to do something great for humanity. Ihor was a truly selfless person and a kind soul. His work on UniConvertor and reverse-engineering of proprietary formats, such as CorelDraw’s, laid the foundation to enabling open-source graphics software, such as Inkscape, to work with formats like CDR, CMX, WMF, AI, etc. He was a frequent guest and speaker at Libre Graphics Meeting (LGM) conferences. He was a strong supporter of free and open-source software, particularly for vector graphics, which led him to starting sK1 project in 2003.
It has been a tragic loss for his family and friends, and a very unexpected one.
Ihor Novikov, the founder and the lead developer of open-source sK1 vector graphics editor and UniConvertor, passed away at the age of 49 in March 2021, due to COVID-19.
