Andrew:
1. Chris Murphy posted a link which he described as a "white paper".
Wow, Chris was out of line for using white paper instead of Technical Paper
which is what is shown on the front page of the PDF. Shame on Chris. OK,
relax.
Andrew, you must know that the point was not directed at Chris, but to
the valid point that Adobe misnamed the paper. It's an important point
in these days when boundaries are being blurred in professional
circles with undue commercial influence. Some people believe the
standards need be higher, even on the "other" list.
Martin and Andrew:
I've absolutely no interest in flame wars. And I don't post here
unless I've got something that I think is important to mention.
I'm still waiting....
Aren't you turning up the flames here, Andrew? OK, you disagree. Some
of us think Martin has valid points.
I found the paragraph about spectral pixmap interesting and a new
concept for me.
Yes, thanks for your thoughts. I appreciated certain aspects of the
paper and the entire discussion it evoked, both here and in the
"other" list. It gave me an update on which way the winds are blowing.
John Gnaegy:
Is this list just an ad for ColorSync, Apple, Adobe and color professionals? Maybe, but
people find it useful sometimes too.
I think people find it useful and appreciate its flexibility, too, John. : >)
The disappointment with the paper comes, it seems to me, when a paper
comes from such a respected source, wrapped up in a vendor's envelope
without clear representation of whether it was a work-for-hire, or
completely and independently produced, and when it contains a summary
mostly of what has been written before, then certain professionals
think that is curious and worth pointing out. And I agree.
Martin:
And, as usual, we see more interesting stuff at the WWDC with Steve
Jobs doing 64-bit retouching faster than Photoshop is capable of.
I'd really like to hear from somebody like you about why Apple have
been so reluctant to develop a product in Photoshop's market?
Me, too. Anybody have some ideas?
best, all,
don
