GeGL is alive, and unlike say, six months ago, is not even in a coma. :)

Excellent!

GIMP is currently understaffed and has been for a while.  But we
definately are still committed to getting gegl to be more than a pipe
dream.  Actually, a directed acyclic graph dream.

Well, try not to put it as a mutually exclusive choice.  Flamewars are
so much fun, you know. :)

[Gimp-developer] Feedback on Summer of Google

2005-07-02 Thread Dave Neary


Hi all,

Someone (Michael Schumacher, I think) pinged me on IRC asking if I had 
any news on the google projects awards.


As you know, we weren't in the list of sponsoring projects, so we added 
some ideas at the very end (the day before the closing date) to the 
GNOME proposals. Since GNOME kind of fumbled the ball on the Google 
thing too, there are (to my knowledge) no GIMP related projects chosen 
as part of GNOME's quota, and there are no standalone GIMP projects either.


I've been in touch with Chris DiBona, and hopefully next time we'll be 
involved, and both GIMP and GNOME will be better represented.


Cheers,
Dave.
