I don’t know how this one slipped by me, but Inkscape 0.45.1 was recently released. If you aren’t familiar with Inkscape, it’s a free, open source vector graphics editor (like Illustrator) available for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux and Fedora. I’m not a regular Inkscape user but I do like the Trace Bitmap feature. If you aren’t willing to drop the cash on Illy, Inkscape is for you. Download Inkscape here.
