Dear fellow Inkscapers,
on rather short notice I need to inform you that I won't be able to do any development work during the next 2-3 months. Also, I will have very little internet access (if at all) and therefore won't be receiving emails from the -devel list. I am aware that there are a couple of - in part quite substantial - things which I leave unfinished in the SVN repository and I truly apologize that due to my broken laptop (which left me with no personal computer at all during the last half-year) and both major upcoming changes in my life and a lot of very urgent research work for university, I so far haven't completed the tasks I was working on. I very much hope and am positive that things are going to be better in the second half of 2009 and I promise that I will complete all the unfinished stuff as soon as I can resume coding. Until then, please feel free to remove any code of mine which is not functional or not tidied up. You are also welcome to improve it but I will also do so when I'm back at my regular Inkscape work. For the guides stuff I committed a short while ago, I'm attaching a patch of recent work in progress which (partly) implements selecting and editing of multiple guides. You are welcome to clean it up and commit it - or to ignore it for now.
Again, sorry for all the inconvenience. I'm very much looking forward to getting back up to speed with my work. Best regards, Max
