From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Exciting, as always. I just hope they can eventually add CMYK support.
I get color spaces are hard and there are workarounds involving Scribus, but I wonder if one could just have a custom SVG attribute that would be ignored by a standard SVG renderer (we’d have a similar placeholder RGB color, which we maybe would allow to be manually modified) and read by Inkscape when rendering to a format for print like PDF.
