Fwd: [Bug 1183009] Re: Test Needed: Gimp

[Pierre Equoy]

The Gimp 2.8 release notes page <
http://www.gimp.org/release-notes/gimp-2.8.html> includes some features we
should test.


   - Single-Window Mode [test already written]
   - Save And Export
   - Layer Groups
   - Tools Drawn With Cairo
   - On-Canvas Text Editing
   - Keyboard Shortcut Changes
   - Simple Math In Size Entries
   - Cage Transform Tool

I will raise an issue in launchpad with this list, so once the issue is
closed, we will cover the basic new features from Gimp 2.8.
