The last GIMP release was a few monthes ago. If the date is 2006-xx-yy,
then this file has not been updated. When I review files for v2.6, I
always give a new date, even if there is no change in the file.

The last gimp-help-package is 2.4, out of date. Now GIMP has an online
help, with the present status of the help ( well, when our po system is
 OK ;-) .)

Good, I'll do that.
