ANNOUNCE: GIMP 2.0 pre3



Hi all,

The latest pre-release of the upcoming 2.0 GIMP is hot off the
presses and available for download now at

  ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/v2.0/testing/

or from one of the mirrors listed at http://gimp.org/download.html

Screenshots of some of the features available in the shiny new GIMP 
are at http://developer.gimp.org/screenshots.html

We fixed a bunch of bugs, and we have another bunch to fix, and
we're sure we haven't found them all yet. If you find any for us,
please report them to http://bugzilla.gnome.org, against the GIMP
product. We really do appreciate it.

A special mention goes out to the GIMP Animation Package from Wolfgang 
Hofer, available here

  ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/plug-ins/v2.0/gap/testing/

The plug-in has recently had a 2.0 pre-release of its own.  This plug-in 
is the best thing sinced sliced cheese. Screenshots are available (in 
French) at http://gimp-fr.org/html/mongimpfr/gap/gap2.html

Happy GIMPing,
Dave.
