I am pleased to announce a new release of the OpenICC-data ICC profiles 
package. The package is polished and improves upon previous releases.


Overview:
The 1.1.0 is a maintenance release. ICC profile data has partitial 
changed. The package relies now on basICColor_Offset_2009 for default Cmyk 
print profiles. They are of very good quality. Gray profiles are modified 
and fixed.


About:
The OpenICC Data package covers a range of ICC profiles for many basic 
usage scenarios. It is intended as a common set of colour management data 
among distributions and projects in oder to reduce the amount of download 
space for each project.

Contained are ICC profiles for internet, photo editing, ICC PCS profiles, 
3D compositing and more. Standard printing conditions are described by
characterisation data from FOGRA and NPES to easily create own custom 
profiles.


Licensing is zlib/libpng compatible and thus OSI approved.


ChangeLog:
         * [data]: remove printing profiles, this reduces conflicts with
           faked printing profiles from Oyranos distributed through Fedora
         * [build]: reference basICColor_Offset_2009-1.0.0.tar.bz2 profiles
         * [docu]: update AUTHORS, README and ChangeLog
         * [data]: fix url string in Gray* profiles
         * [data]: rename Gray(.icc) to Gray_linear(.icc)


Hint:
The Cmyk print profile ISOcoated_v2_bas.icc is the equivilent to 
the former coated_FOGRA39L_argl.icc and is recommended as the default 
Cmyk color space for untagged data and for separation.
