I have heard about Pippin before, and he and Mitch (another well known GIMP developer) confirmed on IRC that the campaign is legit.

The campaign is also listed here http://pippin.gimp.org/ - in the header.

Commit logs of GEGL show he's been an active developer for a long time: https://git.gnome.org/browse/gegl/log/?ofs=1050

Cool. I just went with the $8 tier. Go go GIMP!
