GPRename is one more example proving that the
open source concept in collaboration with theSourceForge website works extremely well.The program was initially created by the user Tristesse. Another user, Zurd, liked it very much but found and reported a bug he hoped would be fixed. After ten months without response from the author, Zurd found the problem himself, fixed it and offered a patch, but again there was no response, and users could not benefit from the patch since it was not part of the official release. Finally Zurd requested and was granted developer status from SourceForge for the GPRename project. Thus the project was brought back to life, and no lines of code were lost.
At the start of 2007, GPRename has been ported from the
deprecated GTK-Perl to the new GTK2-Perl and in mid 2007 the new 2.4 release is now GPL-3.External links
