On Friday Jimmac did a review of Inkscape, which was overall possitive but definitely had some suggestions for improvement. The reason that this is important though is that he is an artist for Novell. It would be ideal if all the art on the Linux desktop was done using free tools, but that just isn't the case today. Alot of the artwork today is done in applications like Adobe Illustrator, which is a good app, but not free. If we can get converts in the major open source houses, that is a good start. Now, we just have to fix the problems that he has -- luckly most are underway.
