Hi Jean-Pierre, Thanks for your message! It is indeed wonderful that there are still people actively maintaining programs with names that start with "x" :-) It's brings a fuzzy nostalgic feeling back :-) The enhancements you talk about indeed sound very good and should make users of xpaint happy.

The Karmic Koala is now in beta stage and has been frozen for new features for some time. But version 2.8.x of xpaint will surely make it's way into Ubuntu 10.04, which is a long-term-support release. Most likely via Debian, and, if you now have a .desktop file for xpaint, it will be a straight sync without local Ubuntu modifications. Eventually xpaint 2.8.* may be backported to 9.10 if there is sufficient interest to do so and if the normal requirements for backporting are fulfilled.
