Feature Freeze darktable 2.0

posted on Wed 14 October 2015

Dear all,

yesterday we entered the feature freeze stage for the upcoming darktable 2.0 feature release: no more new features will be allowed in. The coming months will be used to stabilize and fine-tune the code base.

As usual we don’t make any definite statements about a release schedule, but we suggest to stay tuned towards the end of the year.

Hi, I am very excited and grateful for all your work you have done. This application is great piece of software and I love it! Is there a site with the upcoming feature changes? I did a search, but could not find anything for 2.0 release.

That's great news! Can't wait for it.
Should we expect a beta version before that end of year you mention?

Not at the moment. Either read git commit messages on github - or be surprised what finally jumps out of the box.

Great program for us Linux users. Pleased to see it continues to be upgraded with new features! Look forward to new version.

Nice news!
Is there a feature list somewhere?
I think a print module is foreseen, am I correct?
What about a Lightroom-like brush with real time preview of the changes (a killer feature IMHO).

I got a 1.6.9 update today, which seems unannounced. How did that happen?
Steven Tyrer on Tue Oct 20 11:39:46 2015:

This sounds great version 2 cannot wait to give it a try.
I have just revived via Ubuntu 1.6.9?
Keep up the good work on the best photo software you can get :-)

I was on the road over the weekend and wasn't able to post the release. It's fixed now. :)
Steve on Thu Oct 22 02:23:08 2015:

Since features are frozen, and the project plans for 2.0 are open, might the developers let us know what features we can expect in version 2.0?
Digidio on Fri Oct 23 15:20:49 2015:

Great news, but is there any status on somebody maintaining a windows version. I really love to see anyone who can do this. I am only a user art designer.
