The latest glyph library is the one simply called "Diagram Library.ai".
The older ones with dates included in the file names were around before
the library made it into Mercurial.

Inkscape can certainly be used to create these diagrams, and I will put
a copy of the library into the workspace in SVG format to make this easier.

Inkscape has historically been avoided for a couple of reasons.
Inkscape's SVG output is more difficult to work with when creating
interactive session files, and it is more laborious to add the ID tags
to the SVG using Inkscape than it is with Illustrator. Inkscape also
expands simple gradients out into a large number of objects, making the
SVG files much bigger than they need to be. If the diagrams are not
being used to make OpenCell SVG sessions, then these problems are not
relevant.

Cheers,
Dougal
