Greetings everyone! I was accepted for the 2012 Google Summer of Code, and will be spending the summer adding printer color management to Krita - KDE's popular draw-and-paint application. The approach is to use the color-managed PDF printing workflow that is outlined <a href="http://www.oyranos.org/2012/02/linux-printing/">here</a>. Much of the work I have done during last year's GSoC was to put that workflow into prototype code, which later resulted into a library interface called <a href="http://www.oyranos.org/wiki/index.php?title=LibCmpx">libCmpx</a>. This interface will be used in Krita's print dialog, which will conveniently abstract the details of color management. This will be a big project for me, and prior to the official start of GSoC, I would like to ask for some assistance from the color experts here on OpenICC. LibCmpx uses Ghostscript for PDF rendering and Oyranos for automatic profile-selection - both components will likely require some tuning and patching in order to get libCmpx to properly work. In addition, I would like to possibly work on modifying the print queues and CUPS filters (passing in color-calibrated data) as a stretch goal; a little more background on what would be required for implementing both of these would be helpful. I will be available full-time starting on May 12. As with previous GSoC's, I will be <a href="http://jsimon3.wordpress.com">blogging</a> my progress weekly. Thank you again for your time and I look forward to working on this project! Joe Simon
