I have send announcement in skencil-users and posted news on Russian
Linux related portals. Here is package download statistics for first day:

Ubuntu 10.10                            25
Ubuntu 10.10 64bit                   7
Ubuntu 10.04                            26
Ubuntu 10.04 64bit                   9
Mint9                                          3
Mint9 64bit                                 2
Fedora 13                                  6
Fedora 13 64bit                         3
Mandriva 2010                          6
Mandriva 2010 64bit                 4
OpenSuse 11.2                         4
OpenSuse 11.2 64bit                4
skencil 1.0alpha sources           21

Of course these data are not for serious analyzis but Ubuntu packages are
most popular. So porting on Gtk is a right way.

BTW we have a first bugreport :)

It seems Skencil font system should be seriosly improved.
