Hi Brion, it would be very helpful if you could point us to some documentation about the MacOS X clipboard. I am particularily interested in the formats that are typically used to exchange data using the clipboard. Sven ___ Gimp-developer mailing list

Hi, one of the things we dicussed shortly at GIMPCon was how to add basic color management to GIMP. We know that it will be a major effort to integrate this and it will need GEGL to do it properly. However there are a few things in this area that we should be able to do for GIMP 2.2. That should
