 Summary: GIMP 2.10.0 is now out with a boom!
 Status: draft
 
-The long-awaited GIMP 2.10.0 is finally here!
+The long-awaited GIMP 2.10.0 is finally here! This is a huge release,
+which contains the result of 6 long years of work ([GIMP
+2.8 was released nearly exactly 6 years ago!](https://www.gimp.org/news/2012/05/03/gimp-28-released/)).
 
-For a complete list of changes please see [NEWS](https://git.gnome.org/browse/gimp/tree/NEWS).
+# The Changes in short #
 
-Please complete me!
+We are not going to list the full changelog here, since you can get a
+better idea with our [official GIMP 2.10 release
+notes](https://ww.gimp.org/release-notes/gimp-2.10.html). To get an even more
+detailed list of changes please see the [NEWS](https://git.gnome.org/browse/gimp/tree/NEWS) file.
+
+Some of the most notable changes include:
+
+* The image processing nearly fully ported to [GEGL](https://gegl.org),
+  allowing high bit depth processing, multi-threaded and hardware
+  accelerated pixel processing, and more.
+* Color management is a core feature now, most widgets and preview areas
+  are color-managed.
+* Many tools improved and several new and exciting tools, such as the
+  Warp transform, the Unified transform and the Handle transform tools.
+* On-canvas preview for all filters ported to GEGL.
+* Improved digital painting with canvas rotation and flipping, symmetry
+  painting and [MyPaint](http://mypaint.org/) brush support.
+* Several new image format support added (OpenEXR, RGBE, WebP, HGT), as
+  well as improved support for many existing formats (in particular PSD
+  importing is more robust now).
+* Metadata viewing and editing for Exif, XMP, IPTC, and DICOM
+* Basic HiDPI support: automatically or user-selected icon size.
+* New themes for GIMP (Light, Gray, Dark, and System) and new symbolic
+  icons meant to somewhat dim the environment and shift the focus
+  towards content (former theme and color icons are still available in
+  Preferences).
