Help release

Hi,

because the question of a new gimp-help release came up and the last release is quite a few months back, how about preparing for a new release? According to the changelog a lot has changed, now I'm wondering if there are still a few things missing which contributors want to see in a new release.

If there are no objections, I'll try to prepare a new release.

Cheers,

Sven Neumann

Is the current state in git still targetting GIMP 2.6? Just making sure...

It seems not looking at this page:

http://docs.gimp.org/2.6/en/gimp-concepts-script-fu.html

in particular this is totally wrong (obsolete) text & screenshots

http://docs.gimp.org/2.6/en/kinds-of-script-fu.html

IMHO this should be updated _before_ a release, _or_ it should be clearly written (README?) that some sections still refers to GIMP older versions.

Yes (although some docs and screenshots are not up-to-date).

BTW, do you think it makes sense to start writing docs for GIMP-2.7/2.8?

I don't think so. There will be more user-interface changes, so you might waste time if you document the current state.

Well, this is already the case with the 2.6.0 gimp-help release, so doing another release now wouldn't make it worse.

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=599700 ("Misleading Info in INSTALL text") should be fixed for the next release.

I've scheduled this for the next milestone.

I won't have any time this week to work on a release, but can do next week.

Cheers,
