FYI. Meshes are officially in Cairo now. Scribus 1.5.0svn actually had internal copy of that branch for meshes support. Not anymore probably :)

Snapshot 1.11.2 (2011-01-23) ===========================

In this first snapshot along the way to cairo-1.12.0, we are very excited to announce the introduction of Bezier surface gradients, known as type 6/7 gradients in PS/PDF parlance. This is the culmination of much work by the dynamic duo: Adrian Johnson and Andrea Canciani. Thanks guys!

Also, I want to warmly welcome Uli Schlachter who recently joined the Cairo community on a mission. That mission is to make cairo-xcb a supported backend for 1.12. And for this snapshot he has made great strides in fixing all the bugs I had left behind. Thanks Uli!

And we have also seen a new contributor, Alexandros Frantzis, who has begun bringing up cairo-gl for GLESv2 devices. Thanks Alex!

And lastly, I must also thank Adrian and Andrea for the vast numbers of bugs that they have tackled between them, fixing all those little corner cases that lie hidden until too late. -Chris
