Thanks for the brilliant review. I'll link to it from the main site.

I'm reserving most of the major interface improvements for 2.0.

Meanwhile on the plate for 1.3 are (so far, in no particular order):

DEFINITELY

Basic Visio export via VDX, either Instavue or Instaviz [148apps].
Email the exported URL's [Brian].
Import graphs from a URL [Andy].
Left to right i.e. horizontal layout [Brian].
Instavue: start with first device open [Andy].
Instavue: about/help fix [Andy].
Instavue: delete graph causes a crash [Andy].
Instavue: iTunes backup/sync while Instavue open shouldn't cause  
current graph to close down -- better for interactive use.
Fix missing background in PDF export [Richard].*
Export screen doesn't react to Done button in some circumstances  
[Randy].*
Incomplete Italian localization [Mirko].*
Incomplete Japanese localization.*

MAYBE

Instavue for Windows.
Export to photo roll [Brian].
Incorporate Graphviz 2.22 changes.
Email graphs as attachments [various].
Select different formats for export.
Centralizing graph when extremely zoomed out [Juan, Rui?].
Autoscroll while drawing [Daniel].
WebDAV server [various].

* -- done already in private development, see

http://trac.pixelglow.com/instaviz/report/6 ("last version before 2.0")
http://trac.pixelglow.com/instaviz/roadmap

I'm targeting an early March release.

Hope I haven't missed anything major that can be done in 1.3 ... feel  
free to comment.






Cheers, Glen Low
