Hi, all.

I'm using Inkscape in a new business I am working on, and I have discovered some blocking-features that are missing (at least, I have not found them in the 0.47 version of Inkscape:

• Vertical alignment property for a text block, so text can be shown at the top, the bottom, or centered.
• Kerning adjustment for texts.
• Tracking adjustment for texts.
  
• Word-spacing adjustment for texts.

My new project really need these features from Inkscape, so we'd like to provide funds for the project so they can be included as soon as possible.

As we are currently in the process of getting funds from investors, I'd like to know what would be the approximated budget for implementing these features, and how log it would take (approximately).

Thank you very much for your kind support, and for creating Inkscape.
