Further information about CVEs
by Thomas Leroy
Hi there,
As you may know, 3 CVEs [0] [1] [2] have been assigned to Inkscape, but there
are a very few information available.
The 3 CVE pages redirect to the same CISA page [3], mentioning Inkscape version
1.0 or later as fixed. Could you please confirm this information?
Moreover, in the case of backporting patches is preferred instead of upgrading,
could you please point me to the fixing commits? That would be very awesome.:)
Best regards,
Thomas

PLC Meeting in an hour
by Ted Gould
Okay,
I think I figured out why these emails aren't going out on Monday, but that doesn't help for this one. Sorry for it being late. But we have a PLC meeting in an hour. I imagine most of the big things are going to be hiring and the release. But we'll check in on other stuff too.

Hope to see everyone there!
