Just as an aside, I figured there was no inherent reason to limit the target to just an IT8, so I tried to generate one with argyll's targen and printtarg. Got a target and cal file, but coulnd't figure out how to make the equivalent of an .ITX target that lprof liked.
Printtarg can optionally generate a template for scanin. It should be possible to write a program which converts a scanin template to an lprof picker template.
It's got potential to make LOTS of color points for monitor calibration.
For a LCD, yes, you'll likely need rather many samples. But many CRT monitors can be characterized reasonably accurate with a simple Matrix/GGO model - and such a model has only 5x3 degrees of freedom (if the "upper right end" of the TRC is constrained to [1,1]), so five independent samples should be basically enough in order that the problem is not underdetermined and the model parameters can be solved. Of course that's an absolute minimum, and more samples are better in order to average out measurement errors, spatial variations, etc.

(Btw, depending on the chosen number of orders used for modeling the TRC, Argyll's shaper model may have some more degrees of freedom than GGO, but it is still a rather reasonably low number)

Gerhard
