>>> Krita 2.8.0 is the first stable release of Krita for Windows. Supported by the Krita Development Fund (http://krita.org/support-krita#general), an enormous amount of work has been done improving the support for graphics tablets. Both Huion (http://huiontablet.com/) and Wacom (wacom.com) have generously donated hardware to help us realize the improved support. The OpenGL support has been rewritten and now sports an amazingly high-quality scaling algorithm which is very suitable for working with detailed high-res lineart.

>>> Artists working on games will be pleased with the wrap-around mode that tiles artwork dynamically, making creating seamlessly tiled textures really easy. The clones array feature gives games developers an easy way to create artwork for tiled games.
>>>
>>> G'Mic integration means opening up the enormous set of filters and image manipulaiton algorithms developed by David Tschumperle (http://gmic.sourceforge.net/) at the Greyc lab in Caen. There are many improvements and additions to Krita's native filters as well, thanks to Sahil Nagpal's Google Summer of Code project.

>>> And, of course, more than seven hundred bugs have been fixed, there are many usability enhancements, performance improvements, improvements in file import/export compatibility. For a full report, go to krita.org (XXX) or read the introduction to Krita 2.8 (XXX)
