Marco,
Normally device-links do NOT have source or destination profile information
in them.
Link-o-lator does allow the user to optionally embed either source or
destination profile in the link (un-encoded, and extractable). To my
knowledge only Chromix Colorthink supports this "mega-link" and can then
extract profiles out of the link at a later time.
Years ago we did record those profile tags with the colorsync registry, and
they are lsrc and ldst, (link source or link destination) if anyone else
wants to support a standard way of embed meta-data about a link - feel free.
And as Todd Shirley mentioned, LOL does support multiple CMMS (thanks Todd).
Lastly - LOL 3.0 is now (finally - and this time I MEAN it) in development.
If anyone has feature requests, or must-haves - drop me a note. Soon.
Eric (aka ErICC)
(Eric Neumann said I could use his aka now...)
