Bryce, I tried several of the 0.40 release packages, but I did not find a Windows Executable file. Is there a .exe available for the 0.40 release yet? Thanks for all the hard work.

Announcing Inkscape 0.40 Release
by Bryce Harrington 30 Nov '04

30 Nov '04

= Inkscape 0.40 = 'Draw Freely' http://www.inkscape.org/ The Inkscape community is proud to announce the release 0.40 of Inkscape, "A Cross-platform Open Source Vector Graphics (SVG) Drawing Tool." This release includes three majorly requested new capabilities: Layers, Text-on-Path, and Bitmap tracing. In addition, there are many minor features, a number of usability enhancements, three new tutorials, and hundreds of bug fixes. This is by far the most feature-packed release the project has had. This is all due to the strong developers that have contributed countless hours on Inkscape 0.40. Following our last release four months ago, we have focused intensively on development, adding several new dependencies such as the Boehm garbage collector and the stable Gtk 2.4 libraries. Because of this, user's may encounter more trouble getting Inkscape installed on some platforms than in previous releases. To help those who run into this issue, we're also providing 'Static Binary' packages that include these new libraries inside the package, and thus, the static releases are very large. Download your packages: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=93438 For many more details, see the Release Notes for 0.40: http://www.inkscape.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ReleaseNotes040 Community submitted screenshots: http://www.inkscape.org/screenshots/

Feature request

Hi, while working with Inkscape (0.39) over the last weeks, I realized that I am still missing a few features: 1. The possibility to repeat patterns (x times) along a circle (path). 2. The possibility to store color values somewhere. Otherwise, Inkscape is really marvellous (the most intuitive vector program I have used so far). Keep up the good work!

Final release candidate for Inkscape 0.40
by Bryce Harrington 28 Nov '04

28 Nov '04

Hi All, Tonight we are entering the 'Hard Freeze', the very last phase before the final tagging and branching of 0.40, which is planned for tomorrow evening. Ted has created the final release candidate, 0.40pre5, which is now available from the website. Testing is essentially complete, however we're encouraging people to give the release a quick review. We're looking for silly mistakes like forgetting to update the version number, packaging problems, and major show-stopper bugs. But also add anything else you find to the bug tracker, and we can sort those issues out during the next development cycle. During this Hard Freeze phase, we're going to let the dust settle a bit, do a once-over, and then proceed with packaging and delivering the release. As with all prior releases, once it's cut we need to switch into marketing mode, in order to get the word out. This is where Inkscape users can make a big contribution. We want to get word out on all the major blogs, articles into relevant online magazines, and word of mouth to friends and family. Stay tuned. :-) Bryce >From MAILER-DAEMON Sun Nov 28 04:17:38 2004 Date: Sun, 28 Nov 2004 12:32:08 +0000 Message-Id: <10411281232.AA16385605@...340...> Mime-Version: 1.0 From: "Postmaster" <postmaster@...340...> To: <inkscape-user(a)lists.sourceforge.net> X-Mailer: <SMTP32 v8.14> X-Spam-Score: -3.7 (---) X-Spam-Report: Spam Filtering performed by sourceforge.net.

Hey Greg, Here is what looks like should install for OS X. It seems that the OS X installer does not exist, but ways to install it using two packaging systems on OS X do exist. Mac OS X using DarwinPorts: http://inkscape.darwinports.com/ Mac OS X using Fink (http://fink.sf.net/) There are current installer versions for windows here: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/inkscape/Inkscape-0.39-1.win32.exe?downl… and you can get other versions here: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=93438 In terms of an easy to use DMG package for OS X, it appears that this does not exist currently. I am going on a hunt for this and am going to try and get one generated or do myself. This needs to exist for Mac OS X!
