That's almost too optimistic thing to say at the moment, as GIMP's single window interface has been in talks, like, since when, early 2009? Instead, we got this: http://libregraphicsworld.org/news.php?readmore=667 While I agree that that gimpshop itself is pretty rotten, there's no viable alternative for people willing (needing?) to use it, so backing up its deprecation with the planned (*cough*) release of GIMP 2.8 probably isn't the very best possible course in this case... At this time, there isn't even a specific release date in plans for 2.8 and even if that eventually happens, many people [citation needed] doubt that the single-UI will actually make it there (as, currently, there's not even a spec finalized for it). Just saying. m. -- Michal Varga, Stonehenge (Gmail account) _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
