  1.2 will be dropped then.
 
 Releasing the stable from 1.3 is a bad idea, and I think everyone knows it.
 I wrote an email a few minutes before this one, and I suggest you read it.
 
 1.3 should become 1.4. It doesnt use gegl, and it isnt 2.0 material. Releasing
 1.3 as 2.0 is possibly the worse thing any of you could ever do. You know those
 slashdot trolls who keep saying apple and bsd are dead? They'll say gimp is
 dead, and I will believe them.

A new version with heaps of changes is released.. that means gimp is
dead? I don't follow.

 The downside to using 'ar', really, is that WinZip doesn't support it.
 I haven't verified this - I hope a Windows user can do so for us.  Just
 for reference, attached below is a CP of an ar archive I just made:
 
 
 Hmm..that just seens just plain as no downside at all.
 You see..windows users don't even have a comom tool to edit
 large ASCII files.

vim? emacs? .. I bet there are many editors that can handle large text
files..

Re: [Gimp-developer] mirroring ft.gimp.org problem

 Hi,
 
 I've been mirroring ftp.gimp.org for years using
 mirror.pl and had no problem. But now I noticed
 that something was changed and I've got 278Kb
 mail with NEED to remove all my local files
 under gimp mirror directory. Seems mirror.pl
 doesn't understand a ftp listing format.
 How do you suggest to mirror ftp.gimp.org ?

rsync --delete -vaz --exclude manual --exclude users/ ftp.gimp.org::ftp/
 /export/ftp/mirror/gimp.org/

Works fine for me.

Re: [Gimp-developer] Gimp 1.2.1 IRIX 6.5 Startup Error: GLib-ERROR **: could not allocate -1580979376 bytes

 After compiling gimp succesfully on an SGI box (IRIX 6.5) I get the
 following startup error
 after the configuration screens.
 
 GLib-ERROR **: could not allocate -1580979376 bytes
 aborting...
 gimp terminated: Abort

Sorry for being a bit slow, but I believe you've run into a compiler bug
in MIPSpro cc... It doesn't clear structs correctly according to the C
specification when there are insufficient initializers for a struct. I
ran into this bug with MIPSpro 7.2.1.3m and it works with
7.3.1.something (don't remember exactly and I don't have access to that
machine now).

Apply this patch to your glib:
