There is no way a GIMP plug-in can support multiple versions and even
a completely different app and at the same time be readable and
maintainable code. In my opinion the version included with GIMP-2.0
should be a plug-in for GIMP-2.0 and nothing else. I also don't see
why we should not continue to use our working TIFF plug-in. This
plug-in works, is widely tested and has a maintainer. In my opinion
what we should do is to integrate some functionality of your plug-in
into the TIFF plug-in as found in CVS. I would suggest we start by
adding support for multi-page TIFF file and look into color conversion
routines as soon as GIMP-2.0 is released.
