[Gimp-user] Time to fork BABL and GEGL

[billn <forums gimpusers com>]

BABL has been on the drawing board since 2008? 6 years and still not a no go for
a stable Gimp 2.10 release. Changing Gimp license may be faster than waiting
another 3-5 years for a stable BABL so Gimp can use better open source tools..
