Today it felt the right time to bring up this bug with upstream (I talked with Mc over #inkscape-devel). They found an address for Michael, but it needs to be mentioned that there haven't been a trace of that address for 15 years, even if the mail didn't bounce. Regarding animated-clock.svg, the copyright holder of that is an active Inkscape contributor, so we just pinged him over IRC. -- regards, Mattia Rizzolo GPG Key: 66AE 2B4A FCCF 3F52 DA18 4D18 4B04 3FCD B944 4540 .''`.
