From: Ben Liblit Subject: binaries available from the Cooperative Bug Isolation Project Date: Mon, 20 Oct 2003 18:09:29 -0700 To: gimp-developer@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031013 Thunderbird/0.3

The Cooperative Bug Isolation Project is a research effort at UC Berkeley and Stanford that is exploring novel ways to track down bugs using automated, lightweight feedback from actual user runs. Our suite of instrumented applications includes The GIMP 1.3.21, with Red Hat Linux 9 RPMs ready for download.

The more users we get, the more data we get. And the more data we get, the better information we can provide back to you about how The GIMP behaves (or misbehaves) in the real world. Toward that end, would you like to add a link to our project from The GIMP's download page? Perhaps something like the following could be added to either or :

Specially
instrumented builds for Red Hat Linux 9 are available from the Cooperative Bug Isolation Project. These builds send feedback that may help us find and fix bugs even faster.

Let me know what you think, or if you have any questions about what it is we're doing. Cheers!
