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?

Very much so. I think before we focus on the details of *how* to implement, we first need to look at *what* we should be implementing. "Multipage" can mean a few things. First is print work to go on multiple sheets of the same paper. An additional one, however, is animation. To many people (like classic animators) that is considered somewhat multipage. Also... despite probably needing to show up in the UI differently, we probably would want to structure some internals almost identically. Do we also need to consider "N-Up" printing? Mail-merge badges? Hmm.... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!

If we do things properly, isn't N-Up left to the printing system (and drivers on Win32 I would guess) of the OS? Mail-merge support would be phenomenal imho.

I have a real use case!
I am working on a stickers album. It has around 20 pages. In each pair of pages I want to have a single picture in the whole backgroud. So, I have several SVGs, such as pages1and2.svg pages3and4.svg, and so on. When printing, though, I need to export the pages as they will be printed on paper. That means, half of the paper will have page 1 and the other half will have the last page. This seems to be a common case for magazines and most of the multipage content for printing. Another issue is that very often, pages have a common base layout (such as decorative margins, headers and page numbers). It would be awesome if we could provide a templating system (based on clones, perhaps?) for that.

Hello,
multipage ! I prepared a wikipage about that. Showing the different options. pls also support this page with your information. Also there is a launchpad blueprint that links to the wiki. I do a lot of technical drawings and the C0rel Way fits for me perfectly. I would like multipage more sooner than later but if we do a 0.48 quickly then it will not happen. Will it?

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=30678> Are the plans to fully support OS X Tiger still current? ~suv ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!

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, Josh ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!

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.
