After a year's worth of development since GIMP 3.0 was released,
the team behind the open-source image editor has released
GIMP 3.2.  It comes as part of the plan
to release GIMP more frequently, rather than wait six or seven years
between releases.  The release comes with lots of new features (as can
be seen in more detail in the release notes),
including 20 new brushes for the MyPaint Brush tool, an "overwrite" paint
mode, new and upgraded file formats, UI improvements in a variety of
places, such as the on-canvas text editor, and new non-destructive layers:

You can now use Link Layers to incorporate external image as
part of your compositions, easily scaling, rotating, and transforming them
without losing quality or sharpness. The link layer's content is updated
when the source file is modified
The Path tool can now create Vector Layers, which lets you draw
shapes with adjustable fill and stroke settings.
