Edmund,
- From my eyes, it would be very helpful, if you describe your
expriences and potentail workarounds in the OpenICC wiki.

If we have problems and workarounds, which are created from the
interaction of different apps and / or system wide libraries, the
OpenICC wiki is a good place to deal with it.

If the problem occurs only inside one application, a bug report for
this application should be written.

If we address all together these open questions, LINUX can develop to
leading OS for an open colormanagement architecture based on the ICC
standard.

Currently the ICC addresses not such issues and the commercial
developers of applications with support for ICC profiles are using
only the display profile and the standard folder from the
colormanagement-infrastructure of Mac OS or Windows...

Best regards
Jan-Peter
