Xfce 4.20 Pre2 Released
Dear Xfce community, I am happy to announce the release of Xfce4.20 pre2.
This platform pre-release consists of the Xfce core components and will be followed by the final Xfce4.20 release soon. We fixed some quirks which were found in Xfce4.20 pre1, did some further polishing and the result is now released as Xfce4.20 pre2.
Early adopters are invited to give it a try and check for compatibility before the final release, which is planned for 15. December.
Xfce4.20 pre2 includes all Xfce core components. The tarballs for building it can be found here:
Though, you might prefer to wait for distribution specific development packages.
At long last, the first release of GIMP 3.0 is here! This is the end result of seven years of hard work by volunteer developers, designers, artists, and community members (for reference, GIMP 2.10 was first published in 2018 and the initial development version of GIMP 3.0 was released in 2020). With GIMP 3.0 you can do more than ever before, more easily, more quickly!
Highlights
- Need to tweak a filter you applied hours ago?New in GIMP 3.0 is non-destructive editing formost commonly-used filters. See the changes inreal time with on-canvas preview.
