GIMP 2021 annual report

The GIMP project has put out areport summarizing a year of development on this image-manipulationapplication.

With 4 development versions released already, you know that we areworking very hard on the future: GIMP 3.0.

Some features took a lot of time, mostly when we changed corelogics. I am thinking in particular about the code formulti-selection of layers. It's not that selecting multiple itemsin a list is hard to implement, it's that any feature in the wholeapplication has been forever expecting just one layer or onechannel selected. So what happens when there are 2, 3 or any numberof items selected? Every feature, every tool, every plug-in andfilter has to be rethought for this new use case.
