We had recently a discussion on the wayland channel. The result does in effect simplify colour management for compositors. A KWin GSoC project was added to the OpenICC ideas page. Advice from KWin developers during such a project would be highly appreciated. I blogged with some more details about the X Color Management protocol, which can be implemented inside KWin: http://www.oyranos.org/2012/02/x-color-management-0-4-draft1/ kind regards Kai-Uwe
