Yes - if Dan who is the one having spent lots of time investigating the
possibilities of the GIMP Foundation recommends joining the GNOME
Foundation I am all for it.

As I expressed at GIMPCon2003 the only role I see for the Foundation is
to be a way to receive donations. It seems that partnering up with the
GNOME Foundation will give us this opportunity.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves. I was clear (I hope) that this is a short-term 
arrangement with the Foundation to fulfill our immediate need of giving people 
ways to donate money towards the GIMP.

The GIMP Foundation is not old news - we will have a chance to meet with Tim and 
some of the foundation board at the conference to discuss whether we would like 
to join the GNOME Foundation, and what that means exactly. But it is also 
possible that we do that for a few years while the GIMP Foundation gets off its 
feet, proves its worth and gets the non-profit status which we hope to get.

Cheers,
Dave.
