Hey All,
I think we closed out the last of the blocker bugs today!
So, will people please help ensure that the release notes are up to
date? I'm headed there in just a minute to document my latest changes.
http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Release_notes/0.47
Regarding PR, I am going to continue with what was started here:
http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/AnnouncePlanning047
If you are an inkscape user who wants to contribute, even if you can't
program, this is the perfect way to give back to the community. Please
help us flesh this out and refine it.
Packagers, please package up Pre3 if you have not already done so as a
practice run... and honestly, I think it would be safe to plan a release
for next week (between Monday the 5th and Friday the 9th), provided
packages are available and no new issues arise.
Any objections to this proposed plan? Any thoughts on if releasing on a
specific day of the week will get more notice?
Cheers,
Josh

I also have started the page for the next release:
http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Release_notes/0.48
I'm doing a pass through the 0.47 page and moving things that were not
quite finished on over to the new 0.48 page. Also if people have new
things that come up, the 0.48 page is the place for them. Once we hit
the main announcement, I'll update the wiki main page to link also to
the 0.48 release notes.

Do you have any news about the state of OS X 10.4 Tiger builds since
0.47pre1?
There has been one tiger-specific bug reported with 0.47pre1 that
unfortunately didn't get much attention, but IMHO impacts its usability:
Not only the integration with the system clipboard (i.e. X11) is
reported broken - the internal clipboard seems limited to bitmap copies
only.
This issue looks unrelated to the known clipboard bug on Leopard+ which
only happens with recent X11/XQuartz versions >= 2.3.2 (bug #307005).
OS X Tiger uses an ancient version of Apple's X11 (1.1.3, based on
XFree86 4.4.0). I could not find any hints whether the new system
clipboard integration code was ever tested in Tiger development builds.
Bug #396754 “Erratic copy/paste in OSX 10.4 0.47pre1”:
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/396754>
earlier posting on the mailing list:
<http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.graphics.inkscape.devel/30621/focus=30...
Are the plans to fully support OS X Tiger still current?

I've got nothing on Tiger builds... Anyone care to step up?
This is just like 7z, exe, deb, rpm, etc... we have volunteers to help
with them and if there is no one to fill the void, well, it's like being
a slackware user. ;)
Cheers,

Ash Josh said, this is a matter of having someone to compile on Tiger.
I have no resources around to do it. Before leaving, Michael told me
he might be able to do it but it will probably be for the release
version only. I thought this bug was related to the other one you
mention. If there is something specific to fix for Tiger, then I hope
Michael will have enough time and 0.47.1 will be available for Tiger.
Otherwise it will indeed stay unsupported.
As an indication, Tiger is still representing 20 to 40% of the Mac user base.
