Re: The name "Gimp"

i'm glad that gimp developers prefer to spend their time on improving the 
application rather than discussing and implementing 'improvements' to it's 
name. 

it's a darn good program. before i switched over to linux about one year ago 
i thought i couldn't live without photoshop. now i wouldn't use PS if it was 
ported to linux, because i like the GIMP much better. i'd use it if it was 
called "PIMP," "SHRIMP," or anything else you can possibly imagine.

as far as i'm concerned, anybody who thinks the name is more important than 
the application is welcome to use something that sounds & looks better to 
them. people who care about important things won't base their decisions on 
idle speculation what a name might mean in one culture or language group or 
the other.
