Pro tools like CinePaint, Scribus, and GraphicsMagick have the users, 
mission and domain expertise for CMS. GIMP, an 8-bit paint program targeted 
to Web imagery users and hobbyists, is not relevant to the professional 
imagery market.

What are we supposed to be looking at there? Relevant to CMS, theres exactly 
one line on that web page. It says,  "first steps towards color management".
