I think that going open source for Xara Xtreme is great. It is a great vector program. Like many before said, it's fast, powerfull and yet simple. Just look samples at their site. I'm no designer, I use it occassionaly. But my broter use it since first version came out (then known as CorelXARA), and won't let it hands of that program.
So, I know that with Xara you can do amazing things. And I'm not saying that just because my brother use it, but it's really great program with so much possibilities.
<brag> For those who don't belive it, just look movie part 2 from xaraxtreme.org and those icons/symbols are drawn by my brother (for one full vector iconset).:) </brag>
Just download and see it for yourself. I'd like to give you opportunity to play/experiment with same symbols/icons in Xara as in above mentioned movie, but since this is my first post on Slashdot I'm not sure if it's ok to put URLs in comments.
I hope that Xara and open source community would live long and prosper.
