Bill Kendrick of NBS wrote in to announce the a new release of Tux Paint. Changes and fixes for this release include:

• Italian translation
• Dutch translation
• Updated German translation
• Support for SDL’s upcoming “WMCLASS” support (so it’ll play nice under WindowMaker)
• Renamed US Coin stamps’ filenames, so that they sort in order of value. (Penny, Nickel, etc.)
• Made a few of the flower stamps ‘tintable,’ to show off the feature.
• Better looking cursor in ‘Open’ dialog.
• ‘Candy-cane’ style progress bar displayed when first starting up, and while preparing to show thumbnails of saved images.
• Added details on “*PREFIX” Makefile variables in “INSTALL.txt” docs. (Spanish translation of this file needs updating!)
• And, last but not least, the number one requested feature: Support for loading older, BMP-format ‘saved’ images!

Bill also sent in this note for help:

I’m interested in translating Tux Paint to as many languages as possible. I’d especially like help in the non-Latin-character languages like Hindi, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc… I’ll need (open source compatible) TTF fonts, and help getting the code to work with them.
