ANNOUNCE: GIMP 1.3.8
Hello GIMPers,
due to the summer and everyone being busy doing other things not too
much did happen in the GIMP CVS tree lately. Nevertheless a couple of
changes accumulated over time and I felt that a new developers release
was due. So here's GIMP-1.3.8 for you:
ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/v1.3/v1.3.8/
Please consider to use one of the mirrors:

Here's the usual disclaimer:
This is a development version that might crash any second, so please
save often and don't use it for real work. However we believe that
stability and useability improved a lot so you might want to give this
version a try.
This release depends on the following libraries (or newer versions):
glib 2.0.0
pango 1.0.0 (with FT2 support)
atk 1.0.0
gtk+ 2.0.0
libart 2.3.8
And here's the list of changes:
- Lots of plug-ins cleaned up and improved [Maurits]
- More work on the help browser [Sven]
- Core code cleanup [Mitch, Sven]
- Improved icons [Jimmac]
- Fixed permissions of shared memory segments.
- Build fixes [Yosh, Sven]
- Bug fixes
