I know, its just that I was in a rush and do not have an account on launchpad yet (do you want me to fill it now ?). Anyway, thanks for your work on inkscape, following it since its sodipodi days its awesome to see the directions it takes and the quality of the beast.
It was very interesting for me to read the post. Thanks for it. I like such topics and anything that is connected to this matter. I would like to read more soon.
Keep on posting such articles. I love to read stories like that. Just add some pics :)
