So, my question is, what are we looking at for a release date at this moment?
Fedora 9 goes into feature freeze and beta freeze March 4th, and beta release March 13th with Final Development freeze April 8.
Ubuntu Hardy entered feature freeze Feb 14, and goes to Beta Freeze March 13th with beta release March 20th.
For inclusion for both Fedora and Ubuntu, we'd need to release by the 4th. If we skipped Fedora, we'd have until the 13th. If we miss both of those dates, then the next opportunity to get Inkscape out officially to Linux users would be 6 months from now.

I would add that windows DOES NOT have release dates / dates for inclusion. Get it into the distros and fix windows as quick as possible and do a . release with docs pointing to how to get the windows release done.
This community rules and doesn't suffer from the problems that other ones do where this approach would mean that windows no longer gets developed...just a situation to deal with rather than precedent.
The other option is for mythical hacking to get windows ready in time... ;)
