NEW: Translatable .inx files
Okay, I figured out the intltool magic, and the user viewable strings in the .inx files should be placed inside the .po files. I can't figure out how to make my Inkscape run in a different language, so I can't test to make sure that they show up translated. But, I believe that they do. The strings definitely show up in the .po files.
-- Translators --
If someone could go through their translation and make sure that all the GUI is translatable. I think this was the large set of strings that couldn't be translated. As far as I'm aware the entire interface should be translatable.
-- Extension Authors --
The inx files now support having an underscore in front of anything user viewable. So an attribute like "description" now also supports "_description". I've changed all the ones in CVS.

PS - I'm really behind on the list, if you expected a reply from me on something, I hope I'll get to that today. Sorry.
Using "NEW:" subject lines for announcing features seems to have become a more or less established tradition, which is good. But I'd like to point out that sending a "NEW:" email to the list also assumes that you have added the same announcement to http://wiki.inkscape.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ReleaseNotes. Please don't forget doing that (Ted, for this one I added a placeholder, please expand it when you have time).

Ah, thanks, I always forget that. I appreciate you nagging though, I think that the quality of the Inkscape release notes is because they are written progressively instead at the end of the development cycle.

Agree! I appreciate this informal procedure extensively which makes writing up the PR much easier. Great!
