content: update introduction to about/history.html.
This page has been saying for years that there **should** be descriptions of
post-1.0 releases and that volunteers were needed. It's time to accept nobody
has any interest in updating this page and to move on, considering it legacy.
Anyway a manual listing of version is boring, error-prone, especially as we now
have many stable and unstable releases a year and we already have great release
news for each and every new version.

[ancient history](ancient_history.html) of the release of GIMP 1.0, here is a description of the post-1.0
releases.

This section still has to be written. Volunteers are welcome!_
+Starting from the [early hints](prehistory.html) leading to the release of GIMP 0.54 by Spencer & Peter,
passing through the [ancient history](ancient_history.html) of the release of GIMP 1.0, here is listing of
release dates, until GIMP 2.8.4. This manual listing has been discontinued, especially now that we release
many micro versions a year, including new features.

bars in the graph above):
