GIMP’s accepted for the Google Summer of Code - see link for details & some project ideas.
We have a no-AI policy: we need people who’ll understand the code they write - it needs to be maintained.

Maybe there is a problem with PandaJim’s packaging? We don’t make the packages for distributions (can’t, in general, in fact).
We’ve heard worse rants, don’t worry :-)
How did this break your plug-ins? Did it mean they did not show up in the menus?

Looks like Rudolf Koch’s Neuland font (commercial) to me. Manfred Klein i think did a version which may be free.

Where there’s a will thereś a way.
In GIMP you make each layer a frame, and file/export as/filename.gif, and choose Animated. You can control the speed by putting `(300ms)` (for eample) after the end of a layer name.
The image must be in Indexed mode, no layer groups.
Nous essayons de faire en sorte que GIMP ne fonctionne pas chez vous ; c’est un code secret qui vous détecte :-)
Non ! Vous êtes sur Mac ? Le problème pourrait venir du Centre de sécurité.
Nous espérons que GIMP fonctionne correctement. Veuillez signaler tout problème rencontré.
We hope GIMP is currently working correctly. Please report any problems you encounter.
Sounds like you may have an old copy of twin.exe in your GIMP profile folder under plug-ins. If so, remove it (or move it well out of GIMP’s sight!)
In our case we mean freedom in the sense of the GNU Public Licence and the Four Freedoms: freedom to run the program, to study its source code, to redistribute exact copies, and to redistribute modified versions.
In human terms this means you own your data.
This is most likely a false positive - a file detected as containing a virus that actually doesn't, but that has the same fingerprint (checksum) as one that would. I am assuing you got GIMP directly from gimp.org of curse.
If you are getting GIMP directly from gimp.org, then no, no virus, it’s almost always a false positive. This happens quite often unfortunately.
Typos brought to you at no extra cost!

It’s possible, since the feature isn’t in GIMP yet, so who knows? If you are (or know) a programmer wanting to work on it, we’d love to hear more. But at least one professional animator is involved, which is promising.
