Re:Color me not impressed
Plugins and extensions as used by openoffice are quite less powerful than what firefox and koffice have. For example this is cool usecase that someone hacked already before we released; http://www.valdyas.org/fading/index.cgi/hacking/musicflake1.html

Re:Journalists
My guess is that it's because he's hosting the same content on two different domains.
http://www.xs4all.nl/~bsarempt/python/index.html
http://valdyas.org/python/index.html
Something similar happened to me recently as well. The google security thingy thought that my second domain with duplicate content was masquerading as some kind of phishing web site (since my original domain was still up).
I'm too lazy to actually check in this case, but it could even be a host of other things, like another site he doesn't own using the same ip address on some shared host, it could be some proxy, some relay, or some webmail, that he might possibly be hosting as well (he's a python programmer after all). It wouldn't have to an open relay, nor some public webmail accessible to all. Some employers are so paranoid about their employees using personal email, that they'd rather block most of the internet by default. -

No new
This program has been known for years. The gimp and krita plugins were written in 2005.
For comparison with professional software, see:

Re:Does it work on 12 or 16 bits/channel images?If I remember correctly (from reading Boudewijn Rempts fascinating blog), Krita has a 16-bit color space. Wikipedia says the following:
In the 1.5 release, Krita has some features not available in most other free software graphics projects like GIMP, such as CMYK, L*a*b and many more colorspaces, with bit depths from 8 to 32 bits per channel (the GIMP is still limited to 8 bits per channel). Work is ongoing on support for natural painting tools that imitate painting or drawing with pencils, or paint brushes with ink or oil paints, even simulating the drying of the paint.
Although I like Gimp a lot (it's ok after you learn it's way of operation), personally, I think Krita is headed for great success. -
Re:Someday OSS developers will learn
And PyQt http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/pyqt/ http://www.diotavelli.net/PyQtWiki is the Python wrapper. There is a book http://www.valdyas.org/python/book.html that is quite good.

I leave it as an excercise for the reader to recode the measly 7% of Java code to C++.
