You *might* have been thinking of the September edition of Linux Format mag,
which had an article about GEGL.  This quote is from Wikipedia :

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GIMP#Development

For the future it is planned to base GIMP on a more generic graphical
library called GEGL <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GEGL>, thereby addressing
some fundamental design limitations that prevent many enhancements such as
native CMYK <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CMYK_color_model> support.
Implementation of this plan was continually put off from 2000 until October
2006, when developer Øyvind
Kolås<http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%C3%98yvind_Kol%C3%A5s&action=edit>demonstrated
a limited working version of GEGL, including a new graphical
interface, that had been developed by Sven Neumann, Michael Natterer, and
Kolås.[3] <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GIMP#_note-2>
