It’s been a long time since the last stable release, but I’m really happy to announce that MyPaint version 1.2.0 is ready. Windows binaries will be available soon, and Ubuntu packages available for testing through the usual PPA. Expect releases for other operating systems and distros in due course.

If you’d like to build MyPaint from source yourself, you can download an official, signed source code bundle on our GitHub releases page.

Ubuntu PPA builds are available from the MyPaint-testing PPA, and other distributions for Linux or OS X will doubtless pick up the new release in due course.

We expect that official Windows installers will be uploaded to the releases page on Github soon. Issue #564 tracks the Windows build’s progress for 1.2.0.
