2.4 schedule estimate?

Having written some software in the past, I know this is an unfair question, but I'm interested in the color management that's slated for 2.4. Can anyone point me at a time (rough waving damp fingers in the air) estimate for when that might be released?

Alternatively and also, anyone using the 2.3 version (described as unstable) which is available? Is it reasonable to try to use that? Does the color management part of it work? And is the CM part likely to remain constant, or is it subject to total rewrite, rendering my learning and calibrations/profiling wasted?

TIA Simon

Hi Simon,

Selon Simon Roberts :

gimp-developer is a more appropriate forum for the question (although I hope that everyone there is also here). I haven't been involved in GIMP development for a while now, so I can't really tell.

Alternatively and also, anyone using the 2.3 version (described as unstable) which is available? Is it reasonable to try to use that?

I would say yes. It's not feature frozen, but it's already quite usable.

Does
the color management part of it work? And is the CM part likely to remain constant, or is it subject to total rewrite, rendering my learning and calibrations/profiling wasted?

It's pretty much finished, as far as I know.

Cheers, Dave.

Apologies for mis-directing the post. I didn't think that through very well :( I'll sign up and lurk on the devel list to keep track of progress.

And thanks for the advice, meanwhile I guess I'll try the development version on the strength of your remarks :)

Merci beaucoup, Sante!
Simon
