The point was not to necessarily use the CMS of the underlying operating system but to not tie us into a particular CMS. The framework, that is being worked on, should allow for different implementations. We will use lcms for the default implementation and it should work on all supported platforms. The goal is though to allow people to develop alternative implementations, based on other CMS or perhaps simply with different policies. As soon as we have extened the modules and plug-ins API as described, you will be able to develop a different color management implementation without doing any modifications to the GIMP core. Sven
