This whole subthread has basically proven why GIMP should be renamed.
I guess I am little late to the game, but would you care to elaborate on that? I may not be a native English speaker, but is wrong with GIMP ?
See definition 3 at https://www.dictionary.com/browse/gimp
but that is only in English, there are many thing offensive in other languages that you know nothing about.
Yes, and if someone says "hey, this Spanish word that you're saying means something really rude and offensive" - I'm going to respect their culture and stop using it.
Because that's how one is kind in an international community.
so you are condemning the name of the photo app, GIMP? how will you show that condemnation, refuse to use the app? -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode
