The 0.92pre5 source package and Windows packages are now released and can be downloaded from the Inkscape website:

https://inkscape.org/en/download/development-versions

Thanks to everyone that contributed fixes and translation updates, packaging, and work on the marketing/outreach preparations.

My hope is there will be no further changes between pre5 and the final release. Please download and test this release candidate as if it was the official 0.92.0 release. What we're looking for are issues that are a) so severe that we need to put off the release, or b) issues caused by recent changes that can be trivially fixed (e.g. one-liner patches that are obviously correct).

Barring any last minute issues, things look good for finalizing the source package this weekend and announcing the 0.92 release early next week.

We'll plan on doing a point release in a month or two. This will include both translation updates and bugfixes.

To everyone that has contributed to the changes in 0.92: Great work! The release is just days away. :-)
