Please keep in mind that the main intention of our proposal has been to better distribute work between core and plug-in developers by seperating the source trees during development. Perhaps this scheme could be translated to distribution too, but it does not have to. If we decide to continue to distribute an awful lot of plug-ins with The GIMP as we do know, we can always put them all into one tarball at release time. Or several smaller tarballs, or a single for each plug-in ... Salut, Sven
