Stripping down/reorganizing GIMPs user interface hasn't happened on the the desktop yet, I fail to see how sufficient resources to do it for the OLPC will magically appear. Horizon was a testbed for ideas and technologies that would be needed in GEGL, that grew into a utility which is useful for some purposes; but still it is mostly a rough proof of concept. The version in CVS, that (almost) runs comfortably on the 770 is the last version before migrating to GEGL, which incurred an increased overhead. That version is 8bit only and of minimal further interest to me. A fully functional GEGL backed rebirth of horizon will probably happen at some point, but at the moment that is vapourware and depends on GEGL evolving quite a bit from it's current (working) state. /Øyvind K. -- «The future is already here.
