Okay. This has gone too far. Both sides made mistakes. How about we all admit that? Mitch and Sven should have talked to Daniel offlist first. Perhaps requiring patches posted to gimp-dev is going too far. Daniel: GIMP isn't ready for optimizations. You should have talked to Kelly before

While we're at it -- why does GIMP 1.3 suddenly have a lot of new tools (Select by color, Adjust brightness, etc.) that you can find in the other menus too, sometimes just as easy? (The icons look a lot like the same for me, and IMHO they're mostly clutter :-) ) Is there any way to

I think that regardless of what the original format is, translators should be given and work with po files. Christian Rose is right in his reasons. I have a few more to add. 1) The translator can't accidentally edit the wrong place and mess up. 2) It is what translators are used to working with

The format I've outlined above still has one problem unrelated to i18n: Do we want to allow paragraphs in tips for nicer layouting and how do we represent them? By adding a para.../para tag ?! No. Any tip long enough to require an additional paragraph should not be a tip. That information

perhaps I'm imaging something wrong here, but I think graphics would be overkill for the tips. Stuff like this belongs to the help pages if you ask me. It would probably help to allow links to help pages in the tips dialog and it would also be much simpler to implement than text flow
