[plug] GIMP and new users

1.2 currently.

As the host OS is RH8, I'll have to build new versions of fontconfig, 
atk, pango, and gtk2 before I can get the latest GIMP going. Not too 
much fuss, but I'll have to set aside a little time to do it. It's not a 
priority since the app is a beta anyway, and not really important for 
what they're doing.

There appears to be quite a bit of interest now in a few apps, including 
OO.o draw, dia (!!) and GIMP. I'm wondering if it's worth dropping 
Scribus on there now, just to see if the advertising folks have any use 
for it - one never does know. I'd have to build a vanilla copy of the 
latest qt, though, so again it's non-trivial.
