Re: [Digital BW] Re: New Adobe RAW plugin released

A standard still might be useful in spite of the
obvious Adobe presentation. 

These kinds of standards are useful in the long run as
long as they aren't run by profiteers, that is,
typical corporations. And who can blame Adobe for
trying? I think it's actually admirable of them to be
doing what they're doing here. If they would hand it
off to a user-run association or outfit, I'd stand up
and clap.

ICC is now happy and here for everyone's benefit.
Perhaps RAW can be too, if only end-users could simply
get along, and this is such a long shot, clearly
apparent via the threads that happen on these forums..


After shaking hands our ilk might even get into the
public testing of inks, coatings, and media, and then
we could all fly to tropical conventions with the
manufacturers paying the bill... But before this could
ever happen, there would have to be a group that
agreed on an initial constitution/charter. I still
think it's possible.

Getting together is the crux of all ain't it?
