I made another release of Dia. This one should fix the bugs people reported just after the 0.82 release. You can now copy/paste image and bezier objects without dia crashing. I also added a new export dialog modeled after gimp's save dialog. This also allows me to separate off export filters to plugins, which is good.
I have included a partially complete CGM filter with the new release. It does everything except beziers at the moment. There is a polybezier element in CGM v3, but I have not had much luck finding docs for it. I don't even know if it is meant to be a closed, filled region or just a line.
Some more work on gnorpm. It almost compiles again. I just need to finish off converting the web find window to the new API and then I can start testing it. After that I should see what changes are necessary to get it compiling with RH6.1 and make sure it doesn't crash in that setup. Then I can go and start cleaning out all the bug reports. Is there any record for the largest number of merged bug reports closed in one go? It certainly feels like I shoulf be in the running :)
