Release of GIMP 3.2.6 incoming (gimp-3-2 branch)

Hi translators and testers!

We are planning a release of GIMP 3.2.6 this weekend (if all goes well). There is no specific string freeze since it’s on the stable gimp-3-2 branch which is therefore always frozen since we released GIMP 3.2.0.

Version: GIMP 3.2.6
Planned release date: this weekend (hopeful Saturday 29th of August)
Branch: gimp-3-2 (already in string freeze since GIMP 3.2.0)
Related report: Release GIMP 3.2.6 (#16712) · Issues · GNOME / GIMP · GitLab

Thanks to all for the contributions!

Hi everybody!

Release is chugging along, but waiting for a GEGL release.

Backporting security fixes led to a new string in po-plug-ins for gimp-3-2. Low visibility, but it’s available for translation on https://l10n.gnome.org as usual.

Hi all! Apologies, while backporting improvements from the master branch, we broke string freeze with app/dialogs: Add 150% mark to Font Scaling (237f1c62) · Commits · GNOME / GIMP · GitLab . It looks like the text should be mostly the same in all languages (looking at existing translation for 200%, the only difference I see is “%200” in some cases), but just wanted to give a heads-up. Sorry!
