[Inkscape-devel] Inkscape 0.41 release plans

An 0.41 release would be very helpful. I'm collaborating on a book with someone, and he's intimidated by having to compile the latest CVS in order to get a certain crucial bug fix. He could download a nightly build, but I'm not sure if he'd have problems with libraries. Once 0.41 comes out, I can just tell him to download the statically linked binary.

It would be interesting to hear from some of the packagers about how things are going. IIRC the person handling the FreeBSD port is struggling to fix some memory leaks introduced by the new garbage collector (OS-specific, apparently), so the BSD port is still at 0.38. I think the debian package is also lagging?
