Well, sometimes I'm much slower, sometimes much faster than even I think
;)

I am determined to branch the gimp-plug-ins tree at the same moment the
original gimp-cvs tree creates a stable branch. I guess that might be
the right moment to enable mirroring (to the main trunk, not the stable
branch)?

So I suggest that plug-in authors treat the "gimp" module on sourceforge
as a read-only mirror, which will, at some point, become partly writable
for development.

In the meantime we could populate the plug-ins module with other plug-ins,
and maybe move some plug-ins from the main distribution there.
