The developers of the Krita painting
application are celebrating
25 years of development with a detailed history of the project.

A quarter century. That’s how long we’ve been working on
Krita. Well, what would become Krita. It started out as KImageShop,
but that name was nuked by a now long-dead German lawyer. Then it
was renamed to Krayon, and that name was also nuked. Then it was
renamed to Krita, and that name stuck.
