Someone has registered gimp on souceforge - http://gimp.sourceforge.net/

I see there's a Donate Money link, and a non-working download link, both of which may be harmful; maybe it's worth asking sourceforge for this not-gimp project to be deleted?

This was from someone who wouldn't share it openly on IRC, although I don't really see why not :-)

Hi Ankh, a bit of info that I thought the team should know and discuss before making it public
It apears that someone has registered a project called gimp at sourceforge http://gimp.sourceforge.net/ it has been there for about 79 days, and just has the default template content. * Ankh looks
so it does
It may be worth the team contacting Sourceforge and requesting a project takeover BEFORE any content goes up, even if you just use it as a point of redirection
I'll send mail to the gimp developr list (or you can) there are a number of policy items that you would have to meet to oficially be allowed to keep a sourceforge prescence, but I think it would possibly be worth it.
I am not a member of the list, and figured that it should come from within your community, but didn't want to have the universe knowing, and possibly hindering your efforts :) ok, thanks for letting us know
if you drop in at #sourceforge (on irc.freenode.net) and ask for the policy doc links, they can be redily provided from there. np.
I found out because someone asked questions about "problems" they had with downloading gimp from sourceforge on #sourceforge, went and checked the page......
will leave you with it. if you want to contact me just /msg sbts on the freenode network
ok, thanks (I'm there too)
