Hi all, I'd like to apologize about the use of the word "ashamed", it is true that it's not fair from my part, specially when talking about people that are willing to donate their time and skills to develop open source software. I am ashamed now because of that... sorry.
It's just that I am disapointed about GIMP, since it is one of the oldest open source graphic software, and from its very beginning I (and many other professional graphic designers) am waiting (maybe in vain) for a quality alternative to Photoshop. Unfortunately with every new version of GIMP coming out some new and usually useless functions (effects) were presented, but no CMYK. CMYK support is not even listed in the todo list, or in the upcoming Google Summer of ?ode :(. A graphic redactor lacking the CMYK color scheme is just not good, specially when there is other alternative to GIMP on the unix/linux platforms.
