Release notes:
This is a testing version pointed to work with touch devices.
Almost all the operations were implemented using cairo (pending are stamp, rotation, mirroring, and  grayscale effect) and was ported to gtk3. The change was big, then testing and report of regressions is welcomed.
In the UI, spinbutton to change pencil size was changed to a slider, the radio button to select pencil shape now use toggle button and the spinbuttons used to resize a selection were removed and the selection can be resized dragging bottom right corner marked in the canvas. Using cairo enable the use of alpha, then a new "Opacity" control allows change it.
The port to Cairo makes the activity slower than before. More work is needed in this area.
