Wikipedia
Being used for Wikipedia will be the biggest surge of usage for SVG-edit (Wikipedia being a top-10 site in the World)
[A round-trip test suite is now in place.](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/svg-edit/SfTVM4OPXiA/discussion)

What are the next steps to get there? Who can help?
Release cycle
Let's start the discussion. And we should eventually come up with some realistic and commonly understood guidelines. Some examples: * A release every 6 months like Ubuntu (October and April) * Release at any time (when energy and features are there), but never more than 12 month between releases.
2.7 Release
What is the code status in trunk?
[The current list of issues tagged needed for 2.7](https://code.google.com/p/svg-edit/issues/list?can=2&q=NeededFor%3D2.7)
Let's discuss "real" blockers for a 2.7 release, because the list above is quite long!
Ease of use and skinning platform
