Like all good companies, they did not make the RAW format universal,
only the term RAW. So nikon RAW image is not the same as a canon RAW
image. Luckily some kind developer found this out and after bugging the
companies, got the needed specs. There was a story about this maybe 2
years ago.
  

This is true! The companies are bad!!

Look for UFRAW and DCRAW.

Good luck!

Indeed the developer was a kind one but he didn't get the information 
from the companies. dcraw *reverse engineers* almost all the RAW formats 
that it supports. The RAW formats have either just compression or 
encryption of the metadata and sometimes both of them. dcraw continues 
to crack every new RAW format metadata encryption/compression which 
comes with newer generation digital cameras.


From the openraw.org website I found out that Sony has acknowledged 
their survey report and gave an indication that that future products 
will take into consideration the data and customer's desires. Other 
major manufacturers like Canon and Nikon don't seem to have changed 
their stance. But dcraw creator is still up for cracking any new 
encryptions the manufacturers use for their new products.

I was in the same situation a few days ago. Here are a few options 
(including non-OSS):


1.RAWstudio – OSS, GTK+ interface, little CMS, basic EXIF reading, very 
young but looks promising http://rawstudio.org/

2.blueMarine – OSS, Apache License http://bluemarine.tidalwave.it
3.Qtpfsgui – License?, http://qtpfsgui.sourceforge.net
4.Raw Therapee – free/ non-OSS www.rawtherapee.com/
5.bibble – http://www.bibblelabs.com/ proprietary, demo
6.Lightzone -  proprietary, 2.4 (penultimate version available for 
Linux), no support, uses Java (and so does Openoffice.org!) 
http://www-old.lightcrafts.com/linux/
7.digikam – OSS, little CMS http://digikam.org/ (more a photo management 
application than RAW editor)
8.f-spot – OSS, Gnome project http://f-spot.org/Main_Page more a photo 
management application than RAW editor)
9.lphoto – OSS, possibly no raw support http://lphoto.com (just a photo 
management app)
10.Picasa – Google, non-OSS, free, http://www.google.com/picasa (photo 
management, read RAW, no RAW editing)

11.krita - photo editor, can read RAW using one of dcraw or ufraw.
12.gimp - photo editor, needs dcraw plugin to read RAW files

I wonder if RAW Therapee could be made to have a change of mind and made 
an OSS.

See the article DEEP IMAGES in the July issue of Linux Journal.  I

dcraw

if you have dcraw and ... hmm not sure what other magic ... then Gnome 
works with these files transparently in Nautilus (preview and open).

The is a dcraw gimp plugin and I think a ufraw plugin too.

dcraw is generally a command line tool but the plug in has a gui.
