What's New?

Further down the road towards GIMP 2.0, the GIMP developers made available a new snapshot. Besides bug fixes and other improvements, this release features a much enhanced path tool with SVG import and export and way better stroking. The 1.3 series appears quite stable lately, so this release should be interesting for a wide public.
