This might be the final release in the GIMP 3.0 series

Gimp 3.2 will include new link and vector layers, new brushes, and significant user interface improvements. Gimp 3.2 is designed to punch Adobe in the face

I was excited thinking this was 3.2 and then let down to see that it is just another 3.0 update.

3.2 may not “punch Adobe in the face” but it is going to be a solid release. Most importantly, it will show that GIMP releases do not have to take years. If the time between releases drops, I am hoping that will attract more developer interest.

A better “punch Adobe in the face” candidate may be the 3.4 release. It is possible that it will finally include full support for CMYK.

Anyway, good to see a GIMP release of any kind, even if it is not 3.2 just yet.

Any chance the CMYK support will open the doors to multiple color spaces? I've dreamt of working on LAB for a while.
