Uli,
Why don't you send us a link to the review, or mail interested
parties a sample, I'll be delighted to look at it. If you wrote
software, GPLing the code and putting it on an archive somewhere might
help as well.
On a sidenote, it's clear that outside reviewers have more effect on
the industry than consultants; a consultant only talks frankly and
directly to the product manager or dev team who take his opinions
under advisement and prioritize them rather low. A reviewer is heard
by the most senior management. I should know - I used to be a reviewer
and became a consultant :)
As regards the miserable user-experience dispensed by
color-management tools, an Automated Workflow working group has been
formed in the ICC; you would certainly be welcome there.
Edmund
