Re: [darktable-user] darktable-users list, fewer postings?

2023-04-25 Thread Glenn Malling
I am an almost completely silent on this list.  However, before I 
retired in 2006 I ran the email systems, including a LISTSERV email list 
manager for Syracuse University.  At that time there was no RFC 
specifying the proper reply message body protocol.  So, unless such an 
RFC has been published since then,other than the MIME RFCs, all this 
griping is pretty much out of bounds. Personal preferences are not 
binding on others.

Hi Terry
I do not think it was "attacked". Age was mentioned since it seems you
do not know the history, and wisdom was challenged, since you seem to
assume that all you know (your way of quoting) is the "right" way,
ignoring the history, and assuming that Microsoft has any authority to
define this.

Having that said, I find it sad that such formal arguments are the
reason for posting to this list or not. With a little bit of extra
effort to accept both worlds, it should be possible to co-exist. The
contents should matter. And it cannot be denied that the "business
world" is adhering to their god (Microsoft). Bad, and we should try
better in a world which is not under their influnce, but we should know
that the other world exists, and tolerate.

Even Internet RFCs follow the robustness principle: "be conservative in
what you do, be liberal in what you accept from others".

(And, by the way, Patrick's excessive full quotes on top with one
sentence on the bottom are also not helpful, and not the idea of
"proper" quoting).

Regards,
Michael

. . . and possibly looking at entirely the wrong app.

I play with a camera that produces 6x4.5 120 negatives. I scan (photograph) 
those B/W  film negative images using my Nikon Zfc digital camera, saving the 
digital images as JPGs on an SD card.

What I want from this app, or for that matter some other app I'm apparently 
unawares, is to take the B/W digital negative images from the SD card in my MAC 
AIR and convert them into positive image JPGs, permitting me to then save them 
in the MAC AIR.

THAT's all I want; just convert negative images into positive images.

Is this the right app for me? Thanks for any advice,
