Dear Gerhard, thank you for your response.

At the moment I'm mainly interested in building monitor profiles. And because of the bug all Photoshop versions do have when using a LUT-based monitor profile (gray balance is lost) I'd prefer a simple matrix based profile anyway. > Since Marti is unfortunately no longer able to maintain the > open source lprof anymore (of course not for technical, but > for other reasons) Are the reasons known?

Has somebody already tested if there's a difference in quality of the new profiler and the old one when building matrix monitor profiles? I guess that there's no or little difference, because that's a pretty simple profile type. Haven't found time to take a closer look.
