ANNOUNCE: GIMP 2.2.10 and 2.3.6 releases

Hi,

while I am writing these lines, the 22nd Chaos Communication Congress (http://events.ccc.de/congress/2005/) is coming to an end. We have had a nice GIMP corner setup here and over the last days we have been busy hacking on GIMP and other things. We also managed to roll out two new GIMP releases:

GIMP 2.2.10 is a bug-fix release in the stable GIMP 2.2 series. Here's the list of bugs fixed in GIMP 2.2.10:

- fixed build error on Sun C compiler (bug #319811) - fixed issue with Guides scripts (bug #320933) - corrected selection display problem (bug #319029) - fixed potential wget issue (bug #322977) - fixed non-interactive use of gimp-edit-stroke (bug #323778) - fixed Script-Fu crash in some locales such as Chinese (bug #163212) - fixed build of librsvg plug-in (bug #314400) - fixed parameter type in "plug-in-unsharp-mask" procedure (bug #325007).

This release also features a special splash screen to celebrate GIMP's 10th anniversary. More details on the splash screen contest can be found at http://gimp.org/contest/.

GIMP 2.3.6 is a development snapshot on the way to GIMP 2.4. Changes since the 2.3.5 release include:

- even faster application startup - binary relocatibility on Linux by means of binreloc - be more verbose when being asked for it - select color index when picking from an indexed drawable - allow to migrate windows between displays - mouse-wheel scrolling and zooming in plug-in previews - added keyboard shortcuts ([ and ]) for changing the brush radius - improved Oilify plug-in
- made the IWarp plug-in preview resizeable - added alignment mode for cloning from a fixed location source - completed core/ui separation of paint tools and paint methods - bug fixes and code cleanup

The source code for both releases is available from the ususal places (http://gimp.org/downloads#mirrors) . Binary packages should become available soon (or are already available). If you want to try the development snapshot, please make sure you have read the release notes (http://gimp.org/release-notes/gimp-2.3.html).

Happy GIMPing, Sven
