Gimp-Print 5.0.0-beta1 is the first Mac OS X release in the new 5.0 
series. This release re Gimp-Print 5.0.0-beta1 is the first beta 
release in the 5.x series. The changes between 5.0.0-beta1 and 
5.0.0-alpha1 are too numerous to list here, so please see the release 
notes for more information.

Please note that as of 5.0.0-beta1 the behavior of the Mac OS X 
installer for Gimp-Print has changed. The installer will now permit 
Gimp-Print 4.2.x and Gimp-Print 5.0 to be installed simultaneously, so 
that printer queues may be created and used with either driver. If you 
are installing 5.0.0-beta and you do not wish to retain your existing 
installation of Gimp-Print 4.2.x simply click on the Customize button, 
available on the last screen of the installer and check the box for 
"Gimp-Print 4.2.x Uninstaller"

Please also note that this release of the installer will update any 
existing 4.2.x printer queue for use with 5.0. If you wish to continue 
using Gimp-Print 4.2.x after installing 5.0 you will need to manually 
create a new printer queue, or use Print Center/Printer Setup Utility 
to change the driver for a particular queue. If you would like to 
comment on this installer behavior please send a polite note to the 
Gimp-Print developer mailing list!
