Hello Boudewijn,

Great work on Krita! Looks like you guys did an AMAZING job with it. At this rate, we will at last have a professional-grade painting program on Linux in but a few releases!

I had a small question though -- couldn't find anything about it on the site: Does Krita support Kipi plugins? Will it? SHOULD it?

Thanks again for you excellent work!

No, we don't support Kipi, at the moment at least. Kipi didn't seem terribily relevant as the plugins are mostly concerned with organizing images and take 8-bit rgb QImages as their choice of image format. I'd be very much interesting in integration with Digikam -- e.g., using Digikam as the organizer and Krita as the image editor with full sharing of plugins. But since Gilles and Renchi are developing their own image editor (working on 16bits, too, I have heard) that seems unlikely. And while I have started working on a Krita plugin that loads all digikam plugins, I'm afraid that that would be a dead end -- again, because Krita supports a potentially infinite variety of image formats, and the digikam plugins presuppose 8-bit rgba.

Okay, I suspected something like this. Anyway, thank you for the clear answer, and thank you again for all the good work!
