Makes sense when you consider that GIMP is not an everyday tool really.
I use it daily but then I'm not just doing simple photo retouches (which
F-Spot does well.)

F-Spot is a basic photo viewer editor which for most users is fine,
while GIMP is a full scale graphics editor that can really scare a few
folks. It will be in the repositories so you can get it if you want it.
I see this as one of the better decisions from Canonical.
