Actually, all GIMP devels whould read it. There are pros who would gladly spend their money on something else but PS. But at moment GIMP is far from anything pros can use.
P.S. Excerpts for lazy. GIMP (1) lacks CMYK support, (2) lacks support for more than 8 bit per channel color support. IOW, GIMP is RGBA/32bit only. One can hardly imaging tool lacking CMYK support chalenging PS positions in desktop publishing. 16bit color support was mentioned several time - some scanners can produce 16bit value for every color making resulting RGB color depth of 3*16 = 48bit. Add alpha channel and you have RGBA/64bit.
