Bryce writes: "Inkscape's first major new release since last June is up. Inkscape is an open source vector drawing tool for Linux, OSX, etc. The major new feature is Gaussian Blur, sponsored by Google's Summer of Code program. With this, you can do a lot of photorealistic effects, drop shadows, glows, etc. Check out the Release Notes to see what else is changed, download it."
