Krita 2.6 Highlights

Krita 2.6 is much faster and smoother than Krita 2.5. 

* Huge performance improvement when painting when using the Vc library (code.compeng.uni-frankfurt.de/projects/vc).
* Another huge performance improvement when painting: use the new precision slider in the preset editor to determine the sub-pixel accuracy you need


Support for painting HDR images and integration into a GFX workflow has been improved.

* Improved support for HDR colorspaces (16 and 32 bits floating point) by using lcms 2.4 (http://www.littlecms.com).
* Initial support for OpenColorIO (http://opencolorio.org/)

There are also many bug fixes and performance improvements:

* Much improved zoom tool
* Support for the latest drafts of the OpenRaster standard
* New color themes that make Krita fit in with other applications in your workflow, such as blender.
