The GIMP: The GNU Image Manipulation Program
============================================
This is version 1.3, the developers version of The GIMP. Only use it
if you are brave and curious and want to participate development
towards the next stable release GIMP version 2.0. This is a developers
version. We know it has bugs and it might not even compile. You have
been warned!
This is a pre-release of GIMP version 2.0. Actually it still is GIMP-1.3,
the developers version of The GIMP. But we got pretty close to the final
2.0 release, the plug-in API has settled and you are encouraged to try
this software. Your feedback can help to make the 2.0 release a success.
If you encounter any problems, please report them to our bug-tracker at
bugzilla.gnome.org. There are still a number of known problems, so please
check first if your problem has already been reported.
Some features that were present in GIMP 1.2 are disabled or not even
included in this release. The perl bindings as well as all the perl
scripts are not any longer included in this source tree. They have
been moved into its own module called gimp-perl and await being
porting to GIMP-1.3 and GTK+-2.0.
GIMP-2.0 installs side-by-side with GIMP-1.2 so there's no need to
uninstall GIMP-1.2 (but sooner or later you will not be using it any
longer...).
The new text tool is only halfway done and various other tools and
functions are broken. Almost everything is under construction. Don't
even think about using this for daily work. If you are a software
distributor, dont' dare to ship this package to innocent users.
Some features that were present in GIMP 1.2 are not included in this
release. The perl bindings as well as all the perl scripts are not any
longer included in this source tree. They have been moved into its own
module called gimp-perl. Sooner or later there will be a gimp-perl
release for GIMP-2.0. GAP, a set of plug-ins that used to live in the
Video submenu has also become a separate package. Expect a preview
release of this software for GIMP-2.0 soon.

5. Bugs
=======
Since this is a developers version, we are at the moment not really
interested in receiving too many bug-reports. Some parts of the code
are unfinished and under heavy development and we know that.
Bug-reports for incomplete or missing are features are therefore often
not helpful. Instead of filing a bug you should try to contact the
person who is working on this particular part of the program (see the
ChangeLog) or try to fix it yourself. You should report crashes and
other severe bugs at Bugzilla (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/). Your
bug-report needs to provide detailed instruction of how to reproduce
the problem. For reports on crashes, please also include a stack
trace.
If you experience crashes whenever you try to start gimp-1.3, you are
most probably using gdkxft or another LD_PRELOAD hack designed for
gtk+-1.2. These hacks will not work with GTK+-2.0 applications like
this version of The GIMP.
