Yesterday, I led an orientation for a small group of beginners from an
Native American community in the US. They all wanted Inkscape loaded
on their new computers. It is a wonder-full, wonderful application.
This Native American nation's (Coastal Salish) heritage and culture is
loaded with arts, in particular totem-like images where Inkscape
excels. These students were already making exceptional images after
just a few hours. One girl did a piece with one star, Ctrl-D-ing,
tweaking and arranging the copies. She was gone into the timelessness
of creativity.

>From the mailing list today came my discovery of F11 and F12 toggles.
Simple, but functions I didn't know about or even realize I wanted. I
am amazed at the quality and thoughtfulness of Inkscape.

So this is a note of thanks to everyone who contributes to Inkscape.
You touch lives in unimaginable ways.

Carl
