Hi guys,
I just wanted to congratulate the entire Inkscape team on the 0.42 release. I tried the final version and it works really well - in fact I've been using it at work to do some of the graphics for a commercial product we're working on. You guys have one of the best managed and most approachable open source projects around, and you should be proud of that.
I'd also like to thank you all for bearing with us as maintainership of the Inkscape autopackage transitioned away from me to Aaron. It's a young technology but judging by the number of people using the Inkscape package, it seems to be working OK. You can see how many people are installing an autopackage for the first time by looking at the runtime download statistics. Notice how much higher todays figure is already than yesterdays (which was the first full day of counting) - and it's only 10:30am! That's the impact of your release:

I'm at work at the moment (so can only play with the Windows build) and have no net access where I'm currently staying, but I'll see if I can take home the autopackage on my mp3 player and test it on my laptop.
Finally, I just realised that mail2web.com was breaking threading on the list ... sorry about that. If anybody knows a better IMAP->webmail gateway please let me know.
Again, congratulations! I can't wait to see what goodies the next version has in it.
thanks -mike
