Our plan for 1.4 was to introduce a new plug-in distribution scheme but not much has been done in this area yet. If the plug-in seems like a useful addition and you'd like it to live in the gimp CVS ask for inclusion as soon as you have something ready. > Do you have any comments on the plugin tutorials which are out there? > Do you recommend a special one? Deepika and I, we are both newbies in > GIMP-land. I recommened having a look at the gimp-plugin-template module available from CVS. It's a nice template for setting up the source tree for a plug-in.
