[Gimp-developer] mirror
Hi again! I sent a request to become a gimp mirror on 2019.09.24 to this mailing list as advised on https://www.gimp.org/webmasters.html . I would like to inform you that there was a little change in the URLs. The base URLs to the "gimp" directory are: http://quantum-mirror.hu/mirrors/pub/gimp https://quantum-mirror.hu/mirrors/pub/gimp rsync://quantum-mirror.hu/gimp I'm going to unsubscribe from this mailing list, but if you are interested adding my mirror to the mirror list, please feel free to contact me at r...@quantum-mirror.hu . Have a nice day!

Thanks Alex, that makes it clearer. Just one thing. Could you please Copy this text to Gimp.org? You've put a lot of effort into it and it would be pity not to share it with the world. Here it will be forgotten (lost) very soon.

You seem to be under the same kind of impression. Perhaps we should communicate our roles and interests better. - Mitch knows GIMP in and out, can hack both back-end and front-end code, but currently focuses on refactoring, all things color management, and reviewing patches coming from other people. - Jehan has a wide range of interests mostly stemming from stuff his wife needs for their animation project. He does both back-end and front-end work related to painting and animation. But since plugins management is pain, that's also among things he wants to improve. While he has a long history of fixing bugs, he mostly works on new features. - Ell focuses on performance and new features that involve interaction on the canvas. He understands the back-end very well and contributes to GEGL as well. - Pippin has a comparatively light footprint in GIMP's source code, GEGL and babl are the libraries where his contributions mostly go. Hence his work directly affects how GIMP pushes pixels around and whether pixels get pushed where they ought to be. - Thomas Manni works mostly on GEGL operations and also has a light footprint in GIMP's code. But his work helps GIMP provide sensible, useful, and fast filters for end-users. That's 5 top contributors in terms of code. Every one of them has his own interests and specialization — an area where they shine. There are more contributors, like Massimo and Elle. Maybe they are supposed to work towards plugin management. Well, nope. Let me tell you about them. Massimo is a prolific contributor of small sane patches that apply cleanly and work very well. He mastered this art, and we treasure him for sticking around and doing just that. We'd never expect him to do some massive work involving redesigning GIMP, because, as far as I can tell, he's not exactly interested in big stuff. Elle is amazing at what she understands very well — color science. Color space converison, LAB/xyY/etc. spaces support in the color picker and sample points — that's the kind of work she does. So when you are looking at Ell adding a 3D Transform tool or Thomas adding a new GEGL filter, or Elle adding Yu'v' (CIE 1976 UCS) support to GIMP color picker, please do not expect them to drop everything and start hacking on something that is out of scope of their interest. This is not how it works. I hoped I cleared this up a little. If you have more questions, shoot :) P.S. You did not say anything of the kind, but since this is related and still preying on my mind, to everyone who thinks contributors should have worked on CMYK support or non-destructive image editing instead of designing the greyscale icon theme I'll just say this: P :) Alex ___ gimp-developer-list mailing list List address:gimp-developer-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-developer-list

And there are global dev efforts in these direction (like GTK+3, non-destructive editing and such). But mostly development is driven by individual priorities, objectives or even sometimes just "where they have most fun", on a finer level.

Things will be done when it's ready, that's it. I haven't taken the time to work on this particular feature the last few months as I was doing other stuff. I will continue implementing the feature.

Re: [Gimp-developer] New asset / extension manager
Hey dude, calm down. Where have I written about "throwing your family, friends and life under the bus" or "black magic instant coding" ? Why are you angry (offended)? Of course I don't know what you're doing. (only what you expose on Gitlab or blog) By priority I meant that Gimp team is pushing new features (that don't look like prerequisites for that manager) and that one that I'm looking for the most looks freezed (at least from outside). So I assume it's only your priority (not priority of the whole team). In that case I understand that creating something new (besides bugfixing, infrastructure maintenance,...) takes some time. I'm developer myself, trust me, I know well how it works. ✌️ On Wed, Jan 8, 2020, 11:01 Jehan Pagès wrote: > Hi, > > On Wed, Jan 8, 2020 at 7:10 AM Michal Vašut > wrote: > >> Ok, so it's not priority... >> > > I re-read my email.
