Hi, As long as you are available to respond to feedback about the patch, it will be included into 2.8, don't worry. It's just that it might take a while before anyone gets around to review and test it properly. > My suggestion: > (1) Completely drop the xcf enum conversions (xcf-util.*) I introduced. > They are not needed anymore and, quite frankly, pointless right now. > This cuts down the patch a bit and means no new files added.

Having conversion routines in a separate patch is reasonable.

CIE LCH based Hue, Saturation, Color and Lightness, right? > (b) decide how to name them. I think the displayed names should be like above, and the API names should have a LCH prefix or suffix. I think the old ones should have display names with "(compatibility)" appended, and only be shown when an XCF that uses these modes have been loaded. The API names should remain as is. > (c) decide how to deal with storing them (XCF version++) Didn't we already say that the XCF version should be bumped?
