Hello,
I am a french young Gimp user (since 2.0 version) and I wish to tell my opinion about the latest version (2.8). In fact, I did not know to whom I have to send this message.I suppose you'll tell me where's the exit door, or, at worst, to whom I have to write.
I congratulate you for the hard work you do. All these improvements: improved layers manager (with folders...), awesome text editor... But (yes there is always a "but" in this kind of message) I do not appreciate the deliberate choice that you made to save the file within the xcf format and to export for the other formats. It is even contrary to the freedoms of the user I think. Don't feel aggressed, but one of the priorities of GNU, if I understand Stallman's philosophy, it is the user's freedom (short reminder : GIMP, GNU Image Manipulation Program). Stallman's philosophy or not, I think it is important to let people choose the format of the picture when they're saving their file.
I know there is little chance that you return to the saving mode into any format.(I hope I contributed by exposing my opinion to the improvement of GIMP).
