I'm honestly interested and like to understand the backgrounds of the GIMP UI discussions a bit more. your question is general enough that the answer could grow textbook size. narrowing it down could give am chance to answer it. meanwhile, I did find an old blog post that may go into what you want to know: <http://blog.mmiworks.net/2007/05/lgm-gimp-project-overview.html> (watch out that the top-10 list that it segues into is heavily outdated and superseded; not useful to start discussions about that anymore) --ps founder + principal interaction architect man + machine interface works http://blog.mmiworks.net: on interaction architecture _______________________________________________ gimp-developer-list mailing list gimp-developer-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list
