Free Gimp.app pulled

Gimp.app is a self-contained Mac OS X application bundle of the X11-based GNU Image Manipulation Program (GIMP), a free open source graphics editor. The project is hosted on SourceForge and is based on free open source code, but was commercialized by OpenOSX & MacGimp.org and the free version pulled.

OpenOSX sells their GIMP 2 CD for $30 or $25 to download. MacGIMP.org sells their version for $79. It's still possible to install a free version of GIMP with fink, although it isn't packaged as a double-clickable application. All 3 versions require Apple's X11.
