GIMP 2.10 will be here before we know it, and currently https://registry.gimp.org is in read-only mode and is a bit of a mess. My understanding is that it’ll be retired once a suitable replacement is found.
Currently there are a ton of filters and scripts on the registry, but we don’t really know which ones work and which ones don’t.
But wouldn’t it be nice if we knew for many of them which worked and which didn’t for 2.10?
What I would propose is:
- Get all files from the registry into a git repo.
- Put all scripts and filters in a folder called
untested
. - As things are tested,
- do a
git mv untested/myscript.scm working/myscript.scm
and optionally put a comment in the file of something like “working as of version 2.9.8” if the script is working - do a
git mv untested/myscript.scm not_working/myscript.scm
if the script is not working
I’d be happy to hear any other ideas.
