Hi, Gimp 2.0 is out!!!

Thank God for this!

I mean if we (Debian desktop users) are waiting for almost 2 years for new stable, it doesn't hurt to wait another month or two for these apps to get packaged and stabilize, right? Also Debian installer would have time to do additional porting efforts. I
think otherwise would be a mistake.

Regards, Safir

That's why it takes two years: there's *always* something it's
apparently worth waiting for.
