A new cairo release 1.4.10 is now available from:

http://cairographics.org/releases/cairo-1.4.10.tar.gz

which can be verified with:

http://cairographics.org/releases/cairo-1.4.10.tar.gz.sha1
8371097e30650ec817b24694367110139627403e cairo-1.4.10.tar.gz

http://cairographics.org/releases/cairo-1.4.10.tar.gz.sha1.asc
(signed by Carl Worth)

Additionally, a git clone of the source tree:

git clone git://git.cairographics.org/git/cairo

will include a signed 1.4.10 tag which points to a commit named:
107a74885a25e585b467c7841c6929a12aa62565

which can be verified with:
git verify-tag 1.4.10

and can be checked out with a command such as:
git checkout -b build 1.4.10

This is the fifth update in cairo's stable 1.4 series. It comes roughly three weeks after the 1.4.8 release. The most significant change in this release is a fix to avoid an X error in certain cases, (that were causing OpenOffice.org to crash in Fedora). There is also a semantic change to include child window contents when using an xlib surface as a source, an optimization when drawing many rectangles, and several minor fixes.

gThumb is an Image Viewer and Browser.

gThumb 2.10.5 is now available for download at:

http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/gthumb/2.10/gthumb-2.10.5.tar.gz
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/gthumb/2.10/gthumb-2.10.5.tar.bz2

Why?
===

This is a bug-fix-only release for the stable branch. A serious bug that prevented saving after image touch-ups (changing brightness, contrast,
etc) was corrected.


All bug fixes in 2.10.5
======================

Fixed bug #448644 - Image brightness-contrast doesn't trigger save-ability.

Fixed bug #450110 - Remove extra space that causes build error.


Branches
=======

2.10.x is the current stable branch of gThumb.

Earlier versions are obsolete. Active distros that still use 2.7.x (ahem, FC6) should upgrade immediately to 2.8.1, which is the stable termination of the unstable 2.7.x series. There are no UI changes between 2.7.9 and 2.8.1. No further bug fixes are going into 2.8.x.

Development is happening in trunk and the metadata-ideas branch. No releases have been made yet from the development code.

GARNOME 2.19.4 has been released:

We are pleased to announce the release of GARNOME 2.19.4 Desktop and Developer Platform. This release includes all of GNOME 2.19.4 plus a bunch of updates that were released after the GNOME freeze date.

This is the fourth release in the unstable cycle, with more features, more fixes and yet more madness added. It is for anyone who wants to get his hands dirty on the development branch, or who'd like to get a peek at future features. If you want to help spot issues in GARNOME, (or, better yet, fix 'em ;-) this release is for you as well.

As usual, you can get the tarball directly from the gnome.org site: http://download.gnome.org/sources/garnome/2.19/

Note: GNOME 2.19.x is an unstable branch and is assumed to be a moving target. Therefore, things in this release may not work as advertised.

If you find any issues with this release, feel free to contact the GARNOMEies in the #garnome channel on GIMPNet (irc://irc.gnome.org), where we hang out, or post to the mailing list.

More information is available at our project website:
