what is more (or less) in my testing of cubic vs linear, cubic was
slower not best.  cubic produced a fuzzy image and linear seemed to
produce the best resized image.


This is purely anecdotal, but for what it's worth, a while back I was trying 
to determine which scaling filter to use in a script to do batch-resizing 
with ImageMagick.  I tested every filter with a couple of my digital photos 
as samples, in ImageMagick and PaintShopPro (IIRC), and to my eye Lanczos 
was the best; it was certainly at least *among* the best.

Actually, on a more generic level, is there some place (other than the
source) where one can look up algorithm details pertaining to things
like this and filters? If yes, awesome, if not, awesome, that will be a
most informative documentation project to embark on.

I don't have experience with EOS350 but I do have fantastic experience 
with ufraw. I had trouble install dcraw but ufraw is fantastic. There 
are libraries and stuff to install and there are two versions. A plugin 
and a standalone version. Very very good application. Stable and full 
featured. I recommend ufraw to anyone wanting to alter and use raw 
files. You might want to see if your raw files from the Canon are supported.

Try ufraw (http://ufraw.sf.net) or bibblelite (http://bibblelabs.com/) 
too. Bibble is trial software but very good and simple to use IMO, and 
ufraw got a few nice new features in it's latest release although I find 
it's actually harder to use sometimes than 0.4..

I agree, ufraw is *very* good.  Only problem, does not include exif
info in the new file.
