Gnumeric-1.1 is now in beta mode. We'll be doing weekly releases until 1.2.0 comes out hopefully on Sept 8. This includes a string freeze everywhere accept the charting engine. The charts are now somewhat useful, Emmanuel contributed ring, line and area plot support, Jean greased up the gradients, and I tacked on patterns. There are still some rough edges but you can get real work done now.
