Last time I checked (i.e., before the cloud), one could download ACR freely and extract it. In it, there were XML files with the profiles. Of course, one is not allowed to use them for LensFun, but *cough* it would all happen in the private area. (Well, as private as it can be nowadays.) There is another thing: LCP files are submitted by private persons to Adobe granting a "non-exclusive" licence. In other words, the persons may submit their data to LensFun, too (IANAL). As far as I see it, we could post to an Adobe forum the plea for submitting all the profiles on private harddisks also to LensFun. This message might not be very popular amoungst the forum admins, though. And last but not least, the program to generate LCP profiles is freely available to Windows users. So they could contribute to LensFun using a convenient tool. >> The better way is to extend LensFun. It is not really difficult, >> actually.
