Zara is a top of the line vector graphics app.

Here is a snip from the press release:

 "We have a load of technology that's better than anything Microsoft or Adobe 
have. By making this Open Source (GPL) we believe we can help the Linux 
platform compete in the mainstream graphics arena better than it ever has 
before." 

The OS is GPL . That is great news.
It also makes Charles Moir, founder and CEO of Xara, in front of the UK 
headquarters of Xara Ltd 
A good candidate for a speech at the LinuxFest ...
