Hi Tom,
Here, apple's own words, is a description of the mess.
You and me completely agree upon the fact that the current situation
is a mess.
If anywhere at all, then we disagree upon what to make of this mess.
My points basically are simply:
1. We cannot simply ignore the current mess (by pretending everything
would be fine with a fixed gamma of 2.2) at the expense of the user.
2. While it's obvious that a unified gamma should be the long term
solution, it's not obvious that this gamma should be 2.2. As I said,
personally, I feel that the whole gamma concept is a historical burden
and the long term unification goal should be 10 bit colors and a
"gamma" of 1.0. Let the LCDs or whatever output media we have take
care of their own linear response, period.
Bye
Uli
