Hi,

a new GIMP release has been uploaded to ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/

GIMP 2.2.14 is a bug-fix release in the stable GIMP 2.2 series. There are no new features in this release, but quite a number of bugs have been fixed:

- fixed sensitivity of input fields in the Lighting plug-in (bug #359833)

For a complete list of bugs fixed in the 2.2 series, please have a look at http://developer.gimp.org/NEWS-2.2.

So far this is just a source code release. But we expect binary packages for the various supported platforms to become available soon.

Unless serious problems show up, this will be the last release in the 2.2 series as we will now fully concentrate on finishing GIMP 2.4. Any help with that is very much appreciated. We all can't wait to finally get 2.4 out of the door.
