2.9 Changelog

[Boudewijn Rempt]

For Krita, I think it's best to take the attached screenshot, the blurb 
I'll quote below and then a link to the big changelog on krita.org.

""""
The 2.9 release of Krita, the award-winning free and open source digial 
painting application is the biggest release we've ever had.

The biggest highlights:

* We implemented eleven out of twelve of the features funded by our first 
kickstarter (the twelfth is coming in 2.9.1) See 
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/krita/krita-open-source-digital-painting-accelerate-deve 
and
https://krita.org/item/the-votes-are-in/.

* Krita now supports loading and showing multiple images in one window, 
and viewing any given image in multiple views and windows.

* Krita now fully integrates the G'Mic set of image manipulation tools, 
enabling artists to, for instance, greatly speed-up their workflow:

* Support for painting in HDR mode got greatly extended, making it a true 
creative tool.

And there's much, much more, ranging from new perspective painting 
assistants to new color selectors, improved transform tools and 
non-destructive transformation masks, brush engine improvements, workflow 
improvements, new filters, support for creating and installing resource 
packs (brushes, gradients, patterns and so on).
