Except... gimpenv.c... Well, I have looked at it know, but it should be fairly easy to make a cleanroom implementation of the functionality in that file only by looking at the code that calls it. The header is under the LGPL. Would that count? ;-) Salut, Sven

I don't think it's appropriate to change the licensing of the GPL portions of GIMP, even if somehow it could be done. It's kind of like asking that you GPL your commercial software so we can include parts of it into GIMP. ;-) However, it would be neat to see GIMP extended in such a way that
