GIMP 2.0 supports MNG animations.

from the What's new in GIMP 2.0 ...

MNG animations are now supported. The MNG file format can be
considered as animated PNG. It has all the advantages of PNG over GIF,
such as more colors, 256 levels of transparency, and perhaps most
importantly, lack of patent encumbrance.  The format is a web standard
and all recent popular web browsers support it.
