By writing documentation, tutorials, translation to his mother tongue, etc. It's too simple to just evangelize. Also it would help not to "demand" features, requesting them will be better. The brilliant coders behind project will not want to be treated that way :). To over all help other publishers help understand using GIMP better, he can also release original XCF (gimp native format) documents they make in their company as open source?? BTW, I wonder what's the use of open source (read as software source code) to a person who does not understand programming? This question is without prejudice and would like to know from this list... Of course somebody can hire a programmer to re write portions of GIMP the way they like it, but it should be released back as GPL right?
