Understood. Thanks for the update, and I'm sure folks will be just as thrilled later in the week as they would be today. :)

Thanks for all the hard work everyone!

Thanks, Chris and Martin.

However, it's going to be a bit difficult to stick to the schedule, as
Martin has run the site update to a newer Django version yesterday, and
as it happens, the news app crashes when I try to access the article for
editing (https://inkscape.org/admin/cmsplugin_news/news/1063/change/).

He had asked me when running it is safe (after the Contest is fully
through), and had set the dateto April 1.

As far as I know, the update's author, Ishaan, who was meant to be
involved in it, also was not included in the process.

Unless maybe if you, Martin, could fix the news app in time? We had
planned for publishing this evening (around 18:00 UTC, or a bit later),
so there's still a bit of time left.
