Digital BW, The Print

I just went through the tours.  Really quite an amazing first draft.  There
are gaps.  I did not see any curves adjustments or chromatic aberration
correction but I am sure they are not far behind.  The intention here is to
create a full editing application (eg spotting and cloning) - staying in RAW
the whole time.  It does of course have a gateway to your favourite image
editor.  The loupe tool is very cool.  Check out the smart web galleries.
The workflow looks amazing but the proof will be in colour rendition for
each type of camera, specific cameras, and its adoption by/support of third
party plugins etc.
