Krita vs. Gimp

I haven't used Krita at all, and barely used GIMP (still enough to realize that I don't like it and that it is very far away from even Photoshop 5 or 6).

I was wondering how does Krita stack up against GIMP. Is it powerful enough to replace it, is it far from replacing it, is it something to be taken seriously any time soon? What is the state of things?
