Hey,<br><br>Would it be possible for you to pull your branch up-to-date with trunk (if it isn&#39;t already), and then create a patch and then upload it and link it from that wiki page? (more people are likely to test that way than another checkout)<br>

Hi Guys,<br>
<br>
So I have been doing a lot of work on the Import from OCAL dialog and I<br>
have finally finished! I was wondering whether I could get some testing,<br>
especially on some different platforms with different internet connections.<br>
<br>
All you need to do is get my branch using:<br>
bzr branch lp:~and471/inkscape/ocal-dialog-improvements<br>
<br>
And then compile as usual. You will find the dialog in File &gt; Import<br>
Clip Art<br>
<br>
So yeah, basically I want a lot of testing, to iron out any errors that<br>
I have missed and also feedback on the stuff I have done. Then once that<br>
is all done, I shall propose for merging into trunk.<br>
<br>
A list of changes is below, as well as a link to screenshots of the new<br>
dialog.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
<br>
