Agreed.

Hmm, I have the feeling the picture is emerging with implementations and 
discussions. A point by point TODO list would mean a complete different 
approach of development. Part of this different approach would be the need 
of even more discussions to cover more of the tasks complexity. 

There exist some older and partitial outdated documents. And for instance 
the ICC spec has some nice diagramms.

Some partial chaotic but highly speculative pages are below:
http://freedesktop.org/wiki/OpenIcc#head-603f006f069fc0816b95ecbfa71025763cb38271
http://www.oyranos.org/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page (top right)
http://www.oyranos.org/wiki/index.php?title=FeatureWish#Todo

Someone with muse to sort and better formulate would be very helpful.

I am assuming sites like the following are of less speculative value:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_colour_management

Otherwise I took your suggestion and modified the #about section. Let me 
know if you think it needs further clarifications.


kind regards
