Whaaaaat?

Seriously, what's left to do in order to release GIMP 3.0?

Good question, it is so long awaited. I believe the GIMP team is seriously understaffed, it is just a handful of volunteers. I really wish they had more manpower and full-time employees like Blender.

I just tried out GIMP nightly build and managed to get it to crash within a few minutes, but overall it felt pretty stable. Some months ago it was notoriously unstable.

At this point, I wonder if they will beat Duke Nukem Forever's record with regards to the GTK3 port…

I gave up waiting like 5-10 years ago.

1. GtkAction -> GAction rewrite
2. Possibly some more API fixes
3. Some more UI fixes and improvements (e.g. theming options need to be enhanced)
4. General cleanup, bugfixes

I like Gimp so I don't want to bang on them to hard. But it looks like the stuff beyond 3.2 is going to be finished before 3.0.

You gave up waiting "...5-10 years ago"? Well, at least you learned.
Some people have been waiting twelve years for LibreOffice to deliver, and still are. And keep on sending them money...which LibreOffice' s management does NOT use for any development.

At least you learned...
