Hi,
I know that 0.46 is only recently out the door, and many of us need a rest, and Bryce is getting married (congrats!) but I'm wondering whether we should start thinking about a 0.46.1 release somewhere around 1-3 months?
I'm also thinking about a list of new features, and whether we should get them out for 0.46.1 or 0.47? Many new features are there in trunk, or ready to be put in and tested. Other things really need to be fixed, but didn't get priority for 0.46 because they weren't showstoppers.
If we come up with some plan, and a rough date, we can hopefully just chip away at it.
Anyway, this may be a bit win32 centric, since that's what I've been working with most, but here's some thoughts. Please balance this out for Mac and Linux...
0.46.1 definites:
All Platforms: * Make sure all PDF import/export problems are sorted, mainly text orientation - LP 211065, 189432 * Other PDF/PS/EPS export issues - see http://www.nabble.com/sorting-out-PS-EPS-PDF-export-mess-td16060378.html * PDF import - spaces removed in font names - LP 179589
Linux: * - ??
Mac: * Halley said "under OSX at least, but likely any platform; if you're using -z on the command line, Gtk still complains loudly about not finding the display. Just clutters up the output when scripting things outside the gui."
Win32: * Native Dialogues - already in trunk and seem stable * Printing enhancements - fix blurs - LP#205732, fix masks * JH's command line wrapper - http://kaioa.com/node/63 * Installer issues - uninstall (LP 211070), language fixes (see http://www.nabble.com/Inkscape-0.46-Win32-Released-td16415387.html) * Use pythonw.exe not python.exe - get rid of DOS popups - http://www.nabble.com/python.exe-or-pythonw.exe-td15954073.html * Win32? - Use clipboard patch to intergrate with O/S clipboard - already working across GTK+ apps (Gimp). * Win32 - Include uniconverter in libs for CDR and other import
0.46.1 possibles:
All: * Calligraphic presets - LP 71255 and http://www.nabble.com/Calligraphic-presets-td16034028.html * Mentalguy's No filters view mode - http://www.nabble.com/NEW%3A-%22No-Filters%22-view-mode-td16391857.html * Crash when creating grid after duplicate window close - LP 183621 - pretty rare scenario * Export to OpenClipart - if not already fixed - Includes LP 179452
