When we starting develop Gimphoto, the main problems was to find file hosting provider that free and reliable, we tried many free file hosting providers to host Gimphoto files even we wrote about it:
http://www.gimphoto.com/2007/09/free-file-hosting_04.html

But later there is many complaints about free file hosting providers that we used, so we must find another solutions, thanks for our friend at Blender Artists forum that told us about Google Code, the new services by Google to host open source projects for free and that day we directly register new account for Gimphoto.
http://www.gimphoto.com/2007/09/google-code.html

Even Google Code kindly approved our request for bigger space and got 2 Gb from 200 Mb but sadly now we heard that Google Code is closing its services because many projects already move on to Github, Bitbucket or Sourceforge. Now every project at Google Code have 10 month time period to moving its files to another project hosting.

So we are also moving from Google Code at:
http://code.google.com/p/gimphoto/

To Gimphoto new home at Sourceforge:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gimphoto/

Thank you very much Google Code! :)

After 1,5 year in the making, today Gimphoto 26.1 for OSX is released.
Code name for Gimphoto 26.1 is Wakatobi.
Gimphoto for OSX is only for Intel Mac and tested using Snow Leopard 32 bit and 64 bit.
This Gimphoto version is based on GIMP 2.6.8 for OSX from http://gimp.lisanet.de so it will need X11.

Modification is done at binary level and not compiled from source because i still failed after many attempts to create Gimphoto packages either using gtkosx native or using macports, but for next version i will try to compile it from source, develop the dmg package by myself and i also try to create Gimphoto Native without X11.

Usually i hosted file at Googlecode but Googlecode not support upload via FTP then i decided to use Sourceforge.net because SF support FTP upload that will help me to upload 70Mb using my slow Internet connection.

Enjoy the release and download it from Downloads Page

.*.*.*. Happy New Year 2011! .*.*.*. \(^_____^)/

Best wishes for all Gimphoto users!
I hope in this new year i can deliver Gimphoto for Mac and the NEXT version of Gimphoto based on GIMP 2.6.8.

I'm sorry, i can't deliver Gimphoto for Mac on 2010 like i promise.
Gimphoto for Mac menu modification is done and the additional script also already done but i have 2 BIG problems that stopped me to finishing Gimphoto for Mac.

The 2 problems is:

- The GIMP plugin can run well but Script-fu can't run with Gimphoto for Mac on my system, i think maybe there is a problem because Gimphoto compile system is for 64 bit system but it is running on 32 bit system, i will check it further.

- Create App bundling (DMG) under Mac is more difficult than i thought before, so my Gimphoto for Mac is running in my system but it is difficult to install it on other system because we need to compile everything (GTK) from source, i need learn more about this.

Soon i can create Mac stand-alone app bundle that included all needed files then i will release it in this site, so stay tune and wish me luck ;)
