Re: [Gimp-developer] Gimp in private schools and educational institutions
I will definitely be there! It will be awesome to meet anyone who can come. I'm the organiser for the London Linux Meetup here, so if anyone wants to come out for drinks or something after the conference, I can help with that as well. :) On Thu, Apr 30, 2015 at 2:10 PM, Alexandre Prokoudine alexandre.prokoud...@gmail.com wrote: It's your lucky day: next LGM is in London.

Re: [Gimp-developer] Gimp in private schools and educational institutions
Yes, I've heard that as well. I can see your point about wearing a GIMP shirt in that environment, but to date, I've never heard of any disabled people taking offence to the acronym GIMP. Also, merely appending 2.8 and showing the Wilbur logo on the shirt would probably be enough to disambiguate. On Wed, Apr 29, 2015 at 11:29 PM, Liam R. E.

The more common meaning of the word in English-speaking countries is a derogatory term for someone injured or disabled; for example, http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=gimp It is not specific to the USA (I'm not from the USA and do not live there). I write this sitting at a conference wearing a GIMP tee-shirt. But I don't wear that shirt at work. Part of my job involves accessibility.

Hi Elle, You know I'm with you regarding giving users more control over how operations are performed, but tossing buttons for toggling between linear and perceptual everywhere in the UI is not a proper solution. It would be extremely confusing, and people would start toggling them randomly without knowing what exactly they are for, and only a few people would benefit from it. I think that allowing that would complicate the UI and the the tools themselves, as all of them should have both paths available. A better solution would probably have to wait until proper no-destructive editing is finally implemented, and operations are visualized as a stack/chain/whatever. I mean, instead of putting toggles on EVERYTHING, why not adding a tool that says from this point, the following operation/s will be performed in linear/perceptual gamma? People used to node-based UIs will understand exactly what I mean. The difference would be that only users who need the toggle will add an operation that makes the switch when it's required. The UI will remain lean, without extra options that could potentially confuse less advanced users.
