Hi there!

Thomas (speleo3) has just implemented pinch-to-zoom for the Inkscape canvas.

As our devs don't have the necessary hardware/system combination to test
the new pinch-to-zoom feature for the upcoming Inkscape 1.0 on Linux,
we're looking for someone who

- has a working multi-touch touch screen or multi-touch trackpad

- on a Linux system (most easily probably Ubuntu/Linux Mint/other Ubuntu
derivatives, where we have a ppa for installing)

- with current (newer than Dec. 22nd 2018) Inkscape master development
version installed
 (find installation options here: https://inkscape.org/releases/master/

- preferably ppa or self-compiled, as the containerization by
snap/flatpak could (maybe?) interfere with testing).

Please post your findings here:
https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/merge_requests/412#note_127007239

Documentation will be available here:
http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Release_notes/1.0#Canvas (not
written yet as of now)

Thank you!

 Maren
