Please prioritize 1.0.x branch for interface translations
by Patrick Storz
Hi all,
just a quick note:
We've recently created a git branch for the 1.0.x release series (this
will become Inkscape 1.0 and potential future dot releases like 1.0.1).
For your translations please prioritize this branch (as that's what
users will see in Inkscape 1.0).
We'll continue to cherry-pick translation updates into master branch
("bleeding edge") for some time, but the branches will diverge
eventually, so you'll have to submit translation updates for master
branch separately again in the near future.
To summarize, the currently active branches (direct links to po folder
included) are:
* *master* - https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/tree/master/po
/latest and ongoing development, will produce all future versions of
Inkscape starting with Inkscape 1.1/
* *1.0.x* - https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/tree/1.0.x/po
/stable branch for the future 1.0.x series, starting with Inkscape 1.0/
* *0.92.x* - https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/tree/0.92.x/po
/oldstable branch for the 0.92.x series, next will be Inkscape
0.92.5, after that releases might be made if needed/
Cheers
Patrick

Thank you everyone!
---------------------
Explanation:
Ranking:
Put the numbers in order of preference, so '32154' would mean 3 is
your first choice, 2 is your second choice etc. You don't have to rank
all numbers if you don't want to.
The system that is used for determining the winner is
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instant-runoff_voting, using the package
openSTV from Ubuntu repositories. Ties will be broken randomly.
Name or nickname:
The name you usually use in your communication in the Inkscape project,
required in case you change your vote or forgot that you had already voted.
Contribution to Inkscape:
As we have decided to allow voting from Inkscape contributors (as
opposed to C++ developers and translators in the AUTHORS file only),
please help us with determining your eligibility for voting by telling
us what you do or did in the Inkscape project (very short, only main
area, e.g. 'writing Inkscape code', 'writing website code', 'writing
news articles', 'setting up infrastructure', 'translating', 'forum
moderation', 'bug triage', 'board member' etc.).
-----------------
PS:
For future votes, we're thinking of using the system on the website.
Consider joining one or more teams [0] there, and to add a description
to your user profile that outlines what you do here a bit, in
preparation for that :)

Inkscape 1.0-beta2 release
by Marc Jeanmougin
Hi everyone!
We are quickly approaching the long-awaited 1.0 release of Inkscape, and
to allow easier testing of the progress we've made with it, we just
released a 1.0-beta2 version!
You can get the release at https://inkscape.org/release/inkscape-1.0beta2/ in the form of source tarball to compile, AppImage for Linux, and .dmg for macOS (windows soon).
The most visible changes should be :
- MacOS Catalina users should be able to manipulate files
- More responsive interface (faster rendering)
- Improved text rendering
All testers are encouraged to test this version and report bugs at inkscape.org/report
The release date for 1.0 is not set in stone yet, but if we don't get major bug reports I expect a release around the end of December.
== Translators ==
Thanks for your work! Strings have been frozen for a while, and it's not too late to submit translations until release date.
== Developers ==
We have now branched the code repo. The new branch 1.0.x now only welcomes bugfixes, translations and easy-to-review changes; while features, performance, code improvements, or anything that was left waiting in prevision of 1.1 are free to go to the master branch.
== All contributors ==
All Inkscape contributors (be it with development, translation, Vectors (outreach), documentation, UX research, etc) are encouraged to vote in the About Screen contest before Dec 15th!
Thanks all!
