But first, some food for thought. Judging by SF statistics, 0.43 is the first Inkscape version where we failed to double the number of downloads. Up to 0.42, the approximate doubling rule held (if we count 0.42 and 0.42.2 as one version), but 0.43 got only a bit more downloads than 0.42: 347000 vs . 300000, even though this release was longer. May be a stats glitch, but may be an indication that 0.44 needs to be marketed more aggressively.
Perhaps, but I'm also curious how much we can believe SF statistics. Even at SCALE I told people to get Inkscape from their distro...
- One small but useful thing that seems to be almost there is help
text for extensions, to be shown on extension params dialogs. Ted, what is the status of this?
It is still a little way off, I doubt I will get it done for this release.
Anyone having something to add to this list is very welcome.
What I do plan on finishing up is cleaning up the parameters so there is longer text (tool tips) available and a few more widgets. Also so more spacing in the autogui to make it look nicer. I think there is also a bug (I haven't verified it yet) in the ordering of the effects in the menu.
