Christoph, I have read much of the material you suggest, and I've visited colormanangement.org a number of times.
I can greatly appreciate how much workhas been committed to this project and the book that you and Gregory authored, especially since I have subscribed to this list since 2006, knowing I would need Scribus and need all of the referencematerial I could obstain. I suggest that with Color Management, we must leap into a whole 'nother conceptualization beyond pts and type, and margins and all of that, and that the terminology for color is complex. I.E., I do appreciate all ofthe work that you and others have committed to this most precious project. I feel a "dire" need--as a color managment newbie, reading and re-reading--for some clarification of the differences or equivalences of the following terminology: 1) When is it "gray" and when is it "grey" 2) What are the differences between "color sets," "palettes," "profiles," and "swatches (204 items)." I expect that this is more work than anyone would want to take on, but I also suggest that if people like myself are going to "grok" colormanagement, we're going to need a little more clarity, in the beginning help pages, with the fundamental terminology. People do not learn in the same ways: Everyone has their own gifts and blank spaces. Mylife is a continual reminder of a profound experience in HighSchool: I was exceptional in Geometry,which came a year before Algebra. Therefore, the school assumed that my geometry gifts would translate naturally into algebra, so they put me in Advanced Placement first year algebra. I was not from a wealthy family, but my town was very highstatus. In the highstatus of Advanced Placement classes, people were laughed at for asking basic questions. I graduated Advanced Placement algebra with a "C," but I did _not_ beginto understand what a _variable_ was until I forced in 1986 to learn Turbo Pascal programming, after spending my first year with my IBMPC/XT and then finally understanding how to copya file from one floppy to another... My apologies if this is too long, or too much of a 'plaint... Barry
