GIMP 1.3.17 Released

Submitted by stro on Thu, 2003-07-24 23:25. GIMP

Lots of new features are being added while the GIMP developers are preparing for camp and GIMP is approaching feature freze. Time for you to try the latest development version which should also be available from a mirror close to you.

developer.gimp.org gets a faceliftBorrowing the look from mmmaybe.gimp.org, developer.gimp.org
has been redesigned. Content still needs to be added but there's hope
that the new site will allow to provide more information about GIMP
development and eventually attract more developers.
