Hi,
UFRaw-0.12 was just released with many new features including full
color management, cropping, rotating, scrolling, noise reduction, two
new interpolations, a cinepaint plug-in, 21 new cameras and more.
Before going into details, let me mention the new UFRaw wiki at
http://ufraw.sourceforge.net/wiki. You are all welcome to add content
to it.
List of changes:
Full color management workflow with camera, display and output profiles.
Added image cropping. Patch contributed by Martin Ling.
Added rotate/flip support. Patch contributed by Bruce Guenter.
Added scrolling and panning. Based on the new GtkImageView widget by
Bj=F6rn Lindqvist.
Added support for dcraw's wavelet denoising. Code contributed by Niels
Kristian Bech Jensen.
Added Patterned Pixel Grouping (PPG) Interpolation. It can be even
better than other interpolations in some cases and much faster. Patch
contributed by Alain Desbiolles.
Added EAHD interpolation. It is an enhancement of the AHD
interpolation with another phase of color smoothing. The improvement
is mostly seen in high contrast as it removes color artifacts such as
chromatic aberration. Patch contributed by Michael Goertz.
Read raw files compressed with gzip or bzip2. Patch contributed by
Bruce Guenter.
Display luminosity value and Adams' zone for spot value. Patch
contributed by Greg Troxel.
Added 'max zoom' (only 50% at the moment) and 'zoom to fit' buttons.
Retain some hue and saturation when clipping pixels. This is only
relevant when applying positive exposure compensation, and mostly for
Canon cameras where positive exposure is applied by default.
Added a Cinepaint plug-in. Thanks to Cinepaint developer Kai-Uwe Behrmann.
Based the user interface more on icons and less on text.
Dozens of smaller fixes.

Comment to package maintainers and users that build UFRaw themselves:
UFRaw configuration process is very forgiving and will let you build
it with minimal dependencies. Of course, missing dependencies will
lead to missing features. Especially for packages, it is recommended
to enable as many features as possible. New dependencies in this
version are gtkimageview and libbz2. Dependency on libexif was
removed.
