[Gimp-developer] Do you plan to create a project on www.kickstarter.com?
Good afternoon. Thank all developers for the great work on Gimp. Are there any plans Gimp-developers to create a project on kickstarter.com, for more rapid development of the Gimp? -- Best regards, Igor Demyanov ___ gimp-developer-list mailing list gimp-developer-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list

Nothing stops a motivated developer that is already part of the GIMP development community, or hopes to get development integrated from her or himself to seek funding through kickstarter for a specific feature. This is however not something that GIMP as a community/project itself wants to pursue or coordinate currently. /Øyvind K. -- «The future is already here.

(Lohalo, which in my mind would become Nohalo, is already in, and for better or worse replaces Lanczos when using the GEGLized GIMP. Loblur would be the Lanczos equivalent that works for arbitrary warps.) I'm not expecting tons of money, just enough so I don't get poorer while I do the job. Why not support some already present (but needing improving) features? As far as I have understand the problems related to money for dev is the risk that money could deviate some dev efforts from the main developing community defined trails. So if someone gets money for some not crucial and not distracting improvement I do not see any risk... -- Marco Ciampa ++ | Linux User #78271 | | FSFE fellow #364 | ++ ___ gimp-developer-list mailing list gimp-developer-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list

[Gimp-developer] Cross-compile for and packaging/testing on Windows
Hi, I have tried native compilation (the GIT repo) in a Windows 7 VM; then I tried to cross-compile. I finally managed to complete the GIMP cross-compilation! This email from the archive has been a great help by the way: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-developer-list/2012-May/msg00067.html This kind of information should definitely be in a WINDOWS-DEV-README (or whatever you wish to call it) file in our repo! That would prevent potential developers to search for days on the web (and for myself in the future maybe, because I probably, and hopefully, won't cross-compile anything for quite some time). Would it be ok to include such a file in devel-docs/ for instance? I can provide an updated version for this procedure.

Re: [Gimp-developer] Cross-compile for and packaging/testing on Windows
Personally, I think the wiki would probably be a better place for stuff like that than the repo (but it's not really my call what goes in the repo or not). There's already a stub for compiling for/on windows: http://wiki.gimp.org/index.php/Hacking:Building/Windows If you'd like a wiki account, I'm told you should hop on IRC and bother either LightningIsMyName or Alexia_Death. If you need any more help with cross compiling, feel free to ask. A few people, including myself, have up to date cross compiling environments working, and wouldn't mind helping you (or anyone) out if you run into any more problems. -- drawoc On Sun, Nov 11, 2012 at 9:22 PM, Jehan Pagès jehan.marmott...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, I have tried native compilation (the GIT repo) in a Windows 7 VM; then I tried to cross-compile.

Indeed I think it could be a little more centralized. Between developer.gimp.org, the wiki, what is in the repo, etc. I am a little lost and end up spending more time on search engines than in the doc. :-/ If you'd like a wiki account, I'm told you should hop on IRC and bother either LightningIsMyName or Alexia_Death. Ok I'll pass some time today or another day and ask for an account. If you need any more help with cross compiling, feel free to ask. A few people, including myself, have up to date cross compiling environments working, and wouldn't mind helping you (or anyone) out if you run into any more problems. Thanks for the offer! I had so many problems one after the other that I felt asking too much would be bothering everyone. Anyway now I compiled it, well enough to be able to test my patch (that is now in the main repo), so hopefully I won't need to bother with Windows for quite some time. But if I need more, I will ask on the list. :-) Jehan -- drawoc On Sun, Nov 11, 2012 at 9:22 PM, Jehan Pagès jehan.marmott...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, I have tried native compilation (the GIT repo) in a Windows 7 VM; then I tried to cross-compile.
