I say we just use 2.0 for the first stable tree using GEGL. This entire argument sucks, imho. The first stable tree using GEGL has been called 2.0 for so long, why call it anything else now? It isnt about GTK2, or about Gnome2, or about any thing else. Its just what someone started calling it, and it stuck. And yes, maybe its useless version number bloat, but who cares? Gimp has been 1.x for so long now, and GEGL is a huge step in gimp's development. When you change this much in a product, you up the major version number.
