This discussion is connected to the gimp-docs-list.gnome.org mailing list which is provided by the GIMP developers and not related to gimpusers.com.
Loads of goodies to use with the GIMP. Friday,: Added 16 color arrows and have now broken the BW/color downloads into 4 packages. Two BW and two color. Also wrote better install instructions and put in a proper (GPL3) license - a fellow GIMP user asked the developers if the arrows could be incorporated into the GIMP, and they responded that the licensing was unclear.

All, Looking at the webpage at
http://docs.gimp.org/2.8/en/gimp-introduction-whats-new.html, I would like to suggest the following changes (words or phrases between parenthesis):
2. What's New in GIMP 2.8?GIMP 2.8 is another important release from a development point of view, even more that(than) it was for 2.6. It features a big change to the user interface(,) addressing one of the most(-) often received complaints: the lack of a single(-) window mode. Moreover(,) the integration effort of ( the )GEGL library had(has) taken a big step forward, reaching more than 90% of the GIMP core, a new powerful transformation tool, layer groups, new common options, new brushes, improved text tool, and more.
New single window mode
With this new feature(,) it will be possible to work with all the GIMP dialogs inside one big window, usually with the image(s) centered inside. No more floating panels or toolbox(,) but the dialogs could be arranged inside this single window. This mode could(can) be enabled or disabled (all the - change to at any) time, even while working, and the option (will be remembered through the - change to: is persistent across) sessions.
I'm not entirely sure what the phrase 'but the dialogs could be arranged inside this single window.' means, so I won't make an attempt to change it for now, but it needs to be changed somehow so that I can better understand what is meant.
New file save workflow
Now Save and Save as work only with xcf formats. If you want to export(save) an image in another format, say jpg or png, you have to explicitly Export it. This enhances the workflow and lets you simply overwrite the original file(,) or export to various other formats.
A new tool: Cage Transform
With this new tool is now possible to create custom bending of a selection (by )just moving control points. This is the result of one of our Google Summer of Code 2010 students.
Improved Text Tool
The text tool has been enhanced to support on(-) canvas text writing(,) and make(s) possible changing the attributes of a single char(acter).
New layer groups
It is now possible to group (a )set of layers(,) and treat them like an entity. It is possible to switch a group on or off(,) and to move the group in the layers dialog. It is easy to add / remove existing layers to a group(,) or to create / delete a layer inside the group(,) and it is even possible to create embedded groups of groups. It is possible to apply a layer mode to a group as you do with a single layer. All this greatly improves the workflow with complex multilayer images(,) making them easier to manage.
Cairo porting
Started with GIMP version 2.6, all tools rendering on canvas is(are) now completely ported to [CAIRO] .
It provides smooth antialiased graphics and improves GIMP look. Some plug-ins have been upgraded to Cairo as well. Additionally(,) all tools now use an on-canvas progress indicator instead of the one in the statusbar.
New script API
*
A lot of GIMP APIs have been rebuilt to simplify developing new scripts.
*
To further enhances(enhance) scripting abilities, API changes to support layer groups have been made
Known Problems
Working with graphics tablets could be problematic due to the GTK+2 library in use. (If in this case - If this happens, ) either use the older version 2.6 or wait for the up(-) coming version 3.0 for the full GTK+3 support.
I may be a little comma-happy, but I am trying to improve readability/comprehension. If I have misunderstood the meaning you were trying to convey, please try re-wording the phrase again.
In reply to Alexandre Prokoudine, yes I misspelled grammar - I didn't notice in my rush to get the message out, and my spell checker didn't complain (or at least I didn't notice it complaining). Mea culpa.
And let me say that whoever drafted this page has much better English skills than I have in any other language, so many thanks for your efforts. :)
Roger

It means that you can move around the dialogs inside the single windowand dock them around at your will... it seems clear to me but ... I knewthis working before reading its description so I suppose I cannot judgefairly...

GIMP User Manual¶
GIMP comes with a built-in help system. Once you have started the program, press F1 for context-sensitive help. You may have to install the help pages from a separate package (gimp-help), depending on how your version of GIMP was packaged.
The user manual for the GIMP 2.10 release is available in 17 languages:
The user manuals for older releases can be found at the GIMP Documentation page.
