Hi,
As someone presumably responsible for posting news at inkscape.org I'd like to ask our PR crew :) if we have final text of the announcement.
Alexandre
It's basically final unless you feel it needs a little tweaking: http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/AnnouncePlanning047#Announcement_Tex...
Note, we no longer have an "informal" one as it was effectively the same size and just much more wordy with less content.
Cheers, Josh

So, PR crew, do we have things lined up to get the word out, places we need to post, articles we can write, interviews we can go on, etc.

Illustrated review in RU is complete, EN version is in works.
Interview is an interesting idea. Only it takes a while to get it ready, judging by (lots of) experience.

Well done everyone!! This is fantastic.
Time to really get the skates on and get the word out. Everyone blogging and tweeting and denting about it as well as posting to news sites... Should we hashtag #inkscape047 ?

Ok there is a bit of tweaking that needs doing... but we need some help.
** Small Overview ** Needs some blanks filled in by people who know!
Pen and Pencil [summary needed]
Path effects [summary needed]
Extensions [summary needed]
** ScreenShots ** It would be great if we could get a few more screenshots - these are going to be reposted wide and far for different audiences... so a good opportunity to showcase a range of different features and styles... if you know someone with some stunning artwork - or something that really demonstrates a new feature - get them to submit ASAP!!!
** Release Notes ** Please, this is important! Can everyone that worked on this release take one more look over the release notes? Check: - Does it reflect your work and changes? - Does it help users understand what's changed? - Does it reveal less discoverable features? - Is there a major new feature in the release notes we haven't mentioned in the small overview? If not it should be there please add it.
If we all work on this we can get that polish on more quickly!
** PR Tip for everyone ** Check my .sig at the bottom of this email. Promote the new release every time you send an email by adding a note to your signature file.

I think the above is redundant of ReleaseNotes (as for the filled in ones) and should just go away.

I added a couple more last night, so we're not in as bad of shape. But hey, can't go wrong with stunning shots of new features in action!

I will give a look over later tonight myself...

Cool - that's easy then!

Agreed. This is a graphics tool afterall, and a picture tells a thousand words!
