Hi, while I see your points and I appreciate your comparisons of the results, fact is that the current code has bugs that are fixed by my patch. The most apparent problem is that the current code is using the 2-dimensional decimation routines even when downscaling only in one direction. To see this, create a new image, apply a standard grid on it using Filter->Render->Patterns->Grid and scale it down in one direction by a scale factor smaller than 0.5. The one pixel wide grid lines will become blurry. I don't think this is acceptable and so far the only choice we have is to apply either gimp-decimate.diff or gimp-decimate-2.diff as found on http://sven.gimp.org/misc/. So far I am in favor of applying gimp-decimate.diff. Unless someone objects and provides an alternative, I will commit this change this weekend.
