For those who use Ubuntu Dapper (6.06) and would like to try the unstable release, go here for a download.

Beware, this is an
unstable testing package which may not work correctly or at all. Neither I nor anyone else is likely to provide support for how to set this up. If you don't know, you shouldn't be using it. :w:

Most immediate, smack-you-in-the-face new features from my perspective:
- foreground extraction tool (top left in the screenshot in action - result on the top right)
- ability to paint and fill using the last image copied to the clipboard (bottom left in the screenshot)
- rectangular and elliptical selections are now readjustable after placing on the canvas
- new align tool
- text on path capability (bottom right)
