Dear Inkscape Program Translators,

a few days ago, Bryce sent the following to the development mailing list, and I think the 'translation' part is probably of interest to you.

Regards, Maren

Another pre-release is now available for testing from the source downloads page:

https://inkscape.org/en/download/source/

The release is:

0.92pre1 Source Tarball Bzip https://inkscape.org/en/gallery/item/9633/inkscape-0.92pre1.tar.bz2

This is an early preview of our upcoming release and as such can be expected to have some stability issues or incomplete features. See Inkscape's bug tracker for a list of known issues.

== Translation ==

We are now in String Freeze. All translators should strive to bring the language files up to date.

Please aim to get all translation work committed by mid-June.

== Packaging ==

Packagers for Linux, Windows, and OSX should use this source tarball for creating packages for their respective platforms. I strongly urge all packagers to test their packaging scripts at this time and generate packages for pre1. Please report to this thread with your status in getting the packages made, so I can identify where help is needed.

Note that this was produced using the new cmake system, and the autoconfig build files are not included in this dist; if you require the autoconfig system for your platform you can still generate an autoconfig tarball from our VCS trunk, however you should prioritize shifting to cmake as we will be dropping autoconfig in the future 0.93 release.

I plan to continue post further pre-releases on a roughly 1-2 week cadence until we feel the codebase is stable enough for the final release, which would be late June at the earliest.

== About Screen ==

Hopefully a contest for the about screen should start up soonish?

In the interim, and as a contingency in case it doesn't happen, could someone modify the 0.91 about screen to say 0.92pre?

Thanks, Bryce
