 Gimp does 16 Bit Color and 8 Bit Gray ( Right? )
 no 24 bit or 32 bit?

24/32 bit colour (RGB/RGBA) or 8 bit grey - in other words 8 bits per channel

 The New Version ( Gimp 3.0 ) Will do Gegl, from my understanding that
 suppose to handle any bit up to 48 Bit?  16 Bit Gray ?

Gegl based Gimp will support at least 16 bits per chanell (16 bit
grey, 48 bit RGB)
such a gimp would be named at least 3.0, but it is possible that 3.0
would not include full gegl support and we will wait for a higher
version (originally, 2.0 was supposed to be Gegl based)

Re: [Gimp-user] renaming the gimp

 remember. So what do YOU think, does the GIMP need a
 name change?

No. The name is very nice and many people already know it.
It is a good brand. Even people that never used it often heard about
the Gimp.
And the name is very easy to remember. It is only 4 letters short
and it has a meaning - Gnu Image Manipulation Program.
So I do not get what you do not like about the name.
There are lots of free programs that do not have ideal names
(some are really obscure), but the Gimp is one I really like.

 But you can do a demo and it is better than they have a false knowledge
 about it!
Insightful remark. Gimp is the Gimp. Not a Photoshop clone. It
shouldn't be the same and its name shouldn't imply it. It is an
original software.

 THe name should imply/tell something about the
 application...GIMP doesn't say anything to me other

With good brands it happens often the other way - Xerox comes to mind
immediatelly. But there are many more such examples.

My experience is that many people around me mix all the similar names
- Photoshop, PhotoPaint, Paint Shop Pro etc...

This happens to me every other day:
I would like to fix those red eyes, how do I do it?
What program do you use?
Adobe PhotoPaint.

or

Photoshop Pro

This does not happen with the Gimp.
