Re: [Gimp-developer] Forwarding bugfix release request we received on GNOME board list
Hi Jehan, Thanks. I'm glad to hear you have been in contact with this contributor. Just to avoid any confusion, I have no comments on the GIMP release schedule and no wish to interfere :-) I just wanted to make sure that the contributor's message got to the right person, since it's better that they discuss a possible release with you and not the GNOME board.

No problem there. ;-) Have fun and a good upcoming week-end!

Re: [Gimp-developer] Forwarding bugfix release request we received on GNOME board list
Hello Philip, We are in contact with this person (since this team does indeed the Marathi translation, and I even helped them to get started as there was no active Marathi coordinator so their initial contributions were stuck) and were even aware of this specific request for a release (dating from January as your email shows). Back in January, I told Dr. Snehalata Shirude that we were hoping to do a release soon, which unfortunately didn't happen in the end for various reasons. We are still planning a release very very soon, though I cannot say an exact date (same as I couldn't back then). In any case, I am sorry to tell we cannot answer to requests for release. It's done when it's done. Such is the saying. :-) I am the first to hope we could have even more releases (though I don't think we are too bad with 5 release since last April). Yet things are so that we don't have the resources, neither have we the intention to speed up things just because a university (or anyone/anything) uses GIMP, even though it is very cool. I'm sure you understand as I doubt that GNOME would speed up its release as well if it were to receive the same request, right? :-) Still thanks for relaying. Have a good Sunday!
