This is version 1.3.11 of the GNU Image Manipulation Program. This is an
unstable release in the development branch. Here's where the development 
takes place on the road to the next stable release dubbed GIMP 1.4.
This release is targetted at developers and curious users. Don't use it
for your daily work. If you are looking for the stable version, get
GIMP version 1.2.x.

This release introduces an incompatibility in the gimprc file format.
You are advised to remove your ~/.gimp-1.3 directory and do a fresh
user installation.

We discovered a small but rather annoying bug right after doing the
release. To get it fixed, apply the patch gimp-1.3.11-tempname.patch
before compiling the tarball.

Please install GTK+ before configuring the GIMP for compilation. This
GIMP requires GTK+ version 2.0.0 or later.

See the files README and INSTALL in the archive for more details.
