Nothing like a flame war. Though I must say that I love these "topics" cause it lets a lot of info out about how people have their different workflows, etc. I'm on a Mac and thus relegated to 2.6 but I've leanred an awful lot from reading all said posts. I really love this list and the helpful nature and devotion. If people weren't interested, they wouldn't write. I'd love to get a GEGL list started in such a way. Dan Houston
