“First off, no, there is no news on a release date of GIMP 2.8.

“While waiting we took a new look at the development which

Feature-Preview of GIMP 2.8 with new pictures (especially look at
steps 4,10,11,12 and 24)

“A short preview:

* The text tool is capable of coloring single words and
characters inside a text now! Wow, I’ve been waiting for this long
time and that alone would have been worth a news ;)”
