The RT DevTeam

• Full EXIF support: The long-waited feature is here, RawTherapee is able to import EXIF data from RAWs and export to the output image formats, including TIFF. RT supports Makernotes, and standards compliance is improved.
• EXIF Browser: Browse, edit, delete the original EXIF tags. The possibility to record additional tags (like author, copyright and comment) is also available.
• IPTC tag support
• More input ICC profile options
• A new highlight recovery method ("CIELab Blending"), that promises better recovery of color information
• Histogram now corresponds to cropped area
• Runtime theme switching: The look ("skin") of RT can be changed, and you don't even need to restart the program. RT will be packed with new themes, too.
• Lots of other minor (and not-so-minor) tweaks: bugfixes, eye-candy, some new GUI icons, performance improvements, etc...

Good work needs time, so we don't want to stick to any deadline, but the next version is released soon. Stay tuned!
