Hi,
I have noticed that gimp has a different concept of sRGB, upon import it asks 
me if I want to convert to its version of sRGB, and that conversion causes 
changes especially in lightness.

I understand the licencing issue, but it would be great if the oss tools would 
agree on one version of sRGB.

Anyway, thanks for your work!

Cheers
Michael

Subversion Kills Productivity. Get off Subversion & Make the Move to Perforce.
With Perforce, you get hassle-free workflows. Merge that actually works. 
Faster operations. Version large binaries.  Built-in WAN optimization and the
freedom to use Git, Perforce or both. Make the move to Perforce.
