[Openicc] profile distribution / Adobe / ECI

[Kai-Uwe Behrmann]

Jan-Peter and Gerhard,

thanks for the input.
I am about writing to the later two organisations separately.


Lars,
would you help out with a statement from Adope about building RPMs and 
other packages of the Adobe Profile collection for including in Linux 
distributions.
The reason for not using the allready available packages is about the 
inclusion in CD/DVD images, the usually convenient way to install software 
in the Linux world.

regards
Kai-Uwe Behrmann
