&gt; I worry that until Inkscape gets to &gt;v1.0 it will be seen as &quot;experimental&quot; and &quot;unstable&quot; by many. I worry that until 1.0, the app will languish, not attracting the user base or developer base it deserves.. Companies won&#39;t trust it, and Ubuntu probably won&#39;t bundle it for example.
