GIMP 2.8.20 packages for macOS and Microsoft Windows are available now.

During Wilber Week 2017 in Barcelona, the GEGL/GIMP team discussed further development plans.

We are releasing GIMP 2.8.20 with various bug fixes.

On January 27 - February 5, the team is meeting in Barcelona for WilberWeek—a week of project planning and vicious hacking.

Almost every new major feature people have been asking us for, be it high bit depth support, or full CMYK support, or layer effects, would be impossible without having a robust, capable image processing core. You can help us fund further development of GEGL now.

When we released GIMP 2.9.2 in late 2015 and stepped over into 2016, we already knew that we’d be doing mostly polishing. This turned out to be true to a larger extent, but quite a few new features slipped in. So, what are the big changes for GIMP in 2016?

Until fairly recently GIMP didn’t do a very good job of remembering all the types of possible customizations. Upcoming v2.10 has some major improvements in that department.

We are releasing GIMP 2.8.18 to fix a vulnerability in the XCF loading code (CVE-2016-4994).

We have just released the second development version of GIMP in the 2.9.x series. GIMP 2.9.4 features revamped look and feel, major improvements in color management, as well as production-ready MyPaint Brush tool, symmetric painting, and split preview for GEGL-based filters.

If you happen to be anywhere near Austin, TX next weekend (July 8-9) then mosey on down to [Texas Linux Fest 2016][txlf] and meet some of your friendly neighborhood GIMP crew!
