Hi Maren:

No problem, I will definitely include the other 2 ways to install Inkscape in a Mac.

And I will be happy to discuss new chapters with the rest of the group before I create a new one.

Please let me know if there are any specific deadlines, and I will work on reaching them.

Happy New Year to all of you,

- Rosalind
