Now we have to decide of a good project for GIMP/Darshan since GSoC

I am more in favor of feasible and more concrete projects for GIMP,
even though maybe less fancy looking that what we used to have for
GSoC. Something which will definitely end up in GIMP in the end.:-)

Some suggestions focused on painting and color management:

* Better LCH support including high bit depth LCH palettes (to replace current 8-bit sRGB palettes) and gradients, plus for the color pickers outlines showing LCH vs the user-selected RGB color space at any given Lightness value, and showing complements/color harmonies.

* Improved soft proofing to compensate for deficiencies in LCMS soft proofing.

* Improved painting assets in general, including brushes and brush dynamics, building on Americo's work on improving painting assets, and addressing a bunch of painting-related bug reports.

* High bit depth brushes - Cinepaint supported 16-bit brushes, but it would probably be more efficient for GIMP to go straight to 32f brushes.

* An HDR viewer and improved HDR editing capabilities.

* OCIO color management

* Improved support for AnyRGB and AnyTRC.

* Adding JCH and CIECAM02 support, following the lead set by RawTherapee's extensive and incredibly useful (for artistic purposes as well as compensating for viewing conditions) CIECAM02 support.

Best,
Elle
