While many of you have already had a sneak peak at the new version, it is still a very good idea to check this version out because this contains many bugfixes compared to release candidates and the like.
So what now?:
The team will start working on Krita 2.9. This means new features, and new features mean new bugs. If you wish stability from Krita, you’ll have to stick to 2.8 for about six to eight months.
We really hope you’ll enjoy Krita 2.8!
