I had it too, I discovered in the previous version 2.7 and I was very
disappointed about it.
I vote for a reverse to the old and more intuitive way.
Thanks and bye.

Maybe there is a method to the developer's madness, but I've yet seen the
reason why. Doubt it will get changed back now though, so I've just accepted

Nothing like a flame war. Though I must say that I love these

their different workflows, etc. I'm on a Mac and thus relegated to 2.6

No - it has to do with these two items, specifically:
http://gui.gimp.org/index.ph
Can I just ask Alexander Prokoudinea question then, since he's obviously
very tied to the project intimately?
Can I ask if this decision to go to export vs. save, is it somewhat based

It would be well to see 2.8 in Damned Lies. There are only 2.6 and
master on Damned Lies. So translators don't see missing tranlations.

About 90% of the time I load PNGs or jpegs (100s of them), edit them,
and save them back in the same format - I don't have any necessity for
XCF in these case
Alexandre,
That change is there for a reason. And the reason is that we are
trying to target a special group of users who have certain workflows
and work on files in certain ways.
As I said in my previous email, I understand the reasons and
fundamentally agree with the change, and I really do

First off, I'll say that I understand the rationale for the newer
save/export behavior, and even if it needed to be tweaked a little to
provide a better user experience it's best for devs to see how people
adjust and look at how feedback develops over the next months rather
than simply giving u

That said, I have three options: (1) adapt my work habits, (2) stay on 2.6. or
(3) change the source.

Hi,
Now that GIMP 2.8 is out, we ask translators to work in the gimp-2-8
branch to update translations of the new stable version.
The master branch is where development of the v2.10 is happening, and
it's not suitable for daily use yet.
