Follow closely on this one: Last night MacUpdated listed a free version of MacGimp 2.0 until the file was pulled from SourceForge. Now the “more info” link points to OpenOSX who’d like to sell you MacGimp for $25+ and has been shamelessly bamboozled by MacGimp.org who wants you to buy it for $80.

See what happens when open source software gets into the hands of greedy, enterprising maniacs? Come on, I’m in business school and I’d sell my sock-drawer on eBay for a quick buck, but I’d never violate the trust of the open source community. Shame on you all. Lets hope Gimp.app reemerges soon.

UPDATE The Gimp is back!

    Everything OpenOSX sells can be obtained free, either by installing with Fink or downloading from SourceForge.
