Dear Developers,
Upgrade is complete. Please stand-by for updated translation files as the new pot file and mo builders are programmed.

Dear Develoeprs,
The inkscape website (inkscape.org) may be unavailable from 1am UTC (9pm EST) for a period lasting about half an hour.
This upgrade will take us from django 1.5 to 1.6.5, django-cms from 1.4.2 to 3.0, haystack from 2.0 to 2.2, Whoosh 2.4 to 2.6 and finally inkscape-web from 1.1 to 1.2.
The upgrade process involves a bunch of manual steps to the database and command line and I hope these will be completed shortly after upgrading the code. My thanks to Hachmann, jazzynico, Brynn and others in helping prepare this release.
After the upgrade, content will be uploadable to inkscape.org and you may wish to populate your user account with some of your svg files to get the ball rolling. Also available will be the ability to upload Addon tarballs and inkscape release builds (exe files/tarballs etc) which can be used instead of sourceforge or your friendly file dumping service. Please see me directly if you need an increased quota to upload large release files.
I'm going to start everyone off with 10MB quota to start gently. The idea for most users is to upload svg files which aren't that big. But we can increase this for different auth groups as needed.
Any questions, reply here.
Best Regards, Martin Owens
