Hi there,

almost one year after gimp release 2.8 there ist still the old gimp
2.6
in ports.
There is MarcusCom CVS Repository:

http://www.marcuscom.com:8080/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/

The ports repo has gtk+-3.6.4 and gimp-2.8.2.

No idea, if there are plans to merge this and when. Maybe you should
ask gnome@?
I don't know if is helpful: I am using Linux live ArtsX dvd and GIMP
works
very good. There is GIMP 2.8.2 on OpenBSD and on live cd:;
http://livecdgraphics.sourceforge.net/
But GIMP for FreeBSD I don't know and I didn't fing any information.
As ajtiM suggests, @gnome is the place to look. Several threads on this.

It, along with the whole of Gnome, were planned to be updated when 9.1
was released, but the loss of pointyhat and the complexity of the
update of Gnome with potential impact on literally hundreds of ports
has forced a delay. It would be extremely unwise to do this without
the level of testing pointyhat allows.

Now that the FreeBSD cluster and support systems are finally coming
back on-line, maybe it is getting closer, but I suspect that the
testing and required adjustments will take a while after pointyhat is
running.
I'm testing some updates on one of my machines, but as I'm sure you
appreciate doing builds of vast numbers of packages takes a while when you
are only using one :)

I really hope it'll be done soon-ish, but there's stuff to fix as well.

Also, s,hundreds,thousands, ....
I try to not sound hyperbolic and hundreds is bad enough!

At least redports is back! Or almost is. It dies for me when I log in.
I reported it a couple of hours ago, so it will likely be fixed
shortly. In any case, for things like releasing a new gnome and all
that is tied to it, pointyhat is probably the only practical way to
go.

Since I'm doing to work, I would like to present my game plan. Currently in testing is a glib+gtk update patch, this patch also contains other changes that need proper testing. When the patch is imported I'm going to sort out all our stale ports we got updates for in MC. Which include gimp 2.8, new poppler, libgda 4 and 5 updates and going to see there is anything else thats needs attention. When thats cleaned up I'm going to sort out the GNOME 3 situation. As you can see this is a lot of work, and since I'm mostly on my own doesn't help either.
