"When can we see 16-bit per channel support (or better)?
For some industries, especially photography, 24-bit colour depths (8 bits per channel) are a real barrier to entry. Once again, it's GEGL to the rescue. Work on integrating GEGL into GIMP will begin after 2.4 is released. Once that work is completed, GIMP will support 16 bits per channel. If you need such support now and can't wait, cinepaint and krita support 16 bits per channel now."
Tuota kritaa en ole kokeillut, vaan odotellut gegliä. Pitkään sitä on lupailtu, mutta eipä ole näkynyt.
