Re: [Gimp-developer] Bug week like thing for GIMP?
While we're at it -- why does GIMP 1.3 suddenly have a lot of new tools (Select by color, Adjust brightness, etc.) that you can find in the other menus too, sometimes just as easy? (The icons look a lot like the same for me, and IMHO they're mostly clutter :-) ) Is there any way to remove them for the user that I've missed? 1) GIMP 1.3 is not yet intended for users 2) the menus are still being reworked ___ Gimp-developer mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer

Let me repeat that I was not talking about bugs (and their destruction), but about community involvment. Mozilla translates community involvement to for instance Bug Week, but it could of course be anything. People had high expectations of The New Netscape years and years ago, and if all that is between these people and a release 1.0 are bugs, then a bug week makes sense. It may help people feel they're involved with Mozilla again. However, GIMP is not Mozilla and I was not trying to copy Bug Week from Mozilla, but rather was trying to see if more community involvement would be good for the GIMP (I think it may be) and how such community involvement could be given shape. From what I understand, talk along these or other lines has taken place on the IRC channel #gimp and Rebecca and Carol have come up with the idea of letting users create a GIMP tarot card set. Perhaps they could talk some more about that idea. Are there any other such ideas that have been floating around? -- branko collin [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Gimp-developer mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
