[Inkscape] [Inkscape-devel] inkscape-0.92pre0 source tarball
by Bryce Harrington
Another pre-release is now available for testing from the source
downloads page:
https://inkscape.org/en/download/source/
The release is:
0.92pre1 Source Tarball Bzip
https://inkscape.org/en/gallery/item/9633/inkscape-0.92pre1.tar.bz2
This is an early preview of our upcoming release and as such can be
expected to have some stability issues or incomplete features. See
Inkscape's bug tracker for a list of known issues.
== Translation ==
We are now in String Freeze. All translators should strive to bring the
language files up to date.
Please aim to get all translation work committed by mid-June.
== Packaging ==
Packagers for Linux, Windows, and OSX should use this source tarball for
creating packages for their respective platforms. I strongly urge all
packagers to test their packaging scripts at this time and generate
packages for pre1. Please report to this thread with your status in
getting the packages made, so I can identify where help is needed.
Note that this was produced using the new cmake system, and the
autoconfig build files are not included in this dist; if you require the
autoconfig system for your platform you can still generate an autoconfig
tarball from our VCS trunk, however you should prioritize shifting to
cmake as we will be dropping autoconfig in the future 0.93 release.
I plan to continue post further pre-releases on a roughly 1-2 week
cadence until we feel the codebase is stable enough for the final
release, which would be late June at the earliest.
== About Screen ==
Hopefully a contest for the about screen should start up soonish?
In the interim, and as a contingency in case it doesn't happen, could
someone modify the 0.91 about screen to say 0.92pre?

[Inkscape] inkscape-0.92pre0 source tarball
by Bryce Harrington
The alpha for Inkscape 0.92, inkscape-0.92pre0, is released and
available for testing from the Download page:
https://inkscape.org/en/download/source/
The release is:
0.92pre0 Source Tarball Bzip
https://inkscape.org/en/gallery/item/9591/inkscape-0.92pre0.tar.bz2
This is an early preview of our upcoming release and as such can be
expected to have some stability issues or incomplete features. See
Inkscape's bug tracker for a list of known issues.
== Translation ==
Translators are encouraged to start looking at translation work. String
freeze will be in one week (May 22nd), but the i18n POT file has been
updated in trunk and we do not anticipate any serious changes between
now and string freeze so please feel free to start preparing your
language translations.
Please aim to get all translation work committed by mid-June.

Packagers for Linux, Windows, and OSX should use this source tarball for

late June at the earliest.
== About Screen ==
An About Screen contest should be started at this time - Josh, you've
run this contest in the past, will you be available to do it again for
0.92? Can the contest be organized to complete by mid-June or do you
think it would require more time than that?
