My driver's far from perfect, but it's coming along well. If I have understand your driver is integrated to gimp. Could you ask the Gimp CVS administrator to add it in the CVS tree? It isn't really ready yet. I'd also like to run it by Mike first, and he's apparently gone for a few days, but I definitely want to get it back in. For Ghostscript, now we have two drivers. I hope that Egil can work with you. I notice that neither of them do 720 dpi or use the 6-color capabilities, so hopefully we can integrate my work into that driver. I took a very quick look at it today and didn't come to any conclusions. My stuff actually operates using 16 bits per channel, which reduces stair stepping effects at low densities. However, I'm not really a graphics hacker (much less an expert in color), so I'd appreciate any help or suggestions I can get.
