Thank you for your introduction. I'm forwarding this letter to
gimp-developer mail list that I suggest you join. There may be questions
from other developers. Also all other students interested in GSoC projects
will be there.

Hi Irena,
The general answer is: Yes, of course this is interesting. However,
please keep in mind that many research papers might not be easily
implementable into GIMP in one summer. Many computer vision papers
present conceptual ideas rather than algorithms productively usable by
an end user.
Hello,
My initial reaction would be that if we are to make the Gimp production
ready, then a few interesting feet on the ground features would be
interesting to work on :
- Resize
- Denoise / Sharpen
... before exporting to CMYK.
Here are some pointers :
- Fractal resizing

A colourization plug-in could be interesting. Not sure if it could be done in
the time frame of GSoC.

The product vision states that GIMP is a high-end photo manipulation
application and that certainly includes support for editing images in
the CMYK color space. We can't call ourselves high-end without that
support.

FYI, my company writes most of its own output in PostScript for high end laser
printers (e.g., Xerox I-GEN 3 and 4). We avoid CMYK. But we're not a pre-canned
application company, we write everything ourselves. All of our printers work
great with RGB colorspace. The need for CMYK is usually

CMYK exists because, though is possible theoretically, it isn't possible
to generate black from mixing CMY inks. As the C, M and Y inks aren't
perfect and have some contaminants, mixing them ends up in a dirty brown
instead of pure black.
That's why CMYK exists, and that's why it isn't so simple

Hi Robert, thanks for your comments.
This really sounds like you're using black as a spot color rather than
going generic editing in CMYK space.
That was just an example. Another example could be just putting an image
in front of a gray gradient background.
In my experience, it's not that easy
