gonna fill 'em itself before Krita 2 is stable enough to be used...  The
Gimp already has relatively decent colour space support, and it sounds like
higher bit depth support is coming down the pipes.

Maybe it won't have quite as flexible a brush model as Krita --- but is that
a sufficient differentiator?

I'd be curious as to what people think the 'mission statement' for Krita
ought to be.

Or maybe that was already established and I missed it in my skim of the
thread...
