I'm curious about the discussion in relation to RGB and CMYK. With GIMP I've modified and had printed loads <add large number here> of photos I've taken and been very happy with the outcome, as have the obviously <grin> highly discerning people I've given the photos to.
One of my work colleagues' brother is a professional photographer. He said that often his brother will have stacks of printed photos he's selling which make it into the 'not good enough' pile. My colleague says that when it's pointed out to him (eg. the green isn't the right green) he can see it, but only just and wouldn't have noticed otherwise. I accept that this is important to those in the industry and that a standard is needed to ease the job of printing etc. I also would agree that CMYK should be in GIMP to assist with its utility, adoption and competitiveness etc. Again industry standard for accuracy etc etc, sure sure. For most people though? I've never been shown the difference (as in, "here are examples of a photograph") and I don't know if most (the majority of) people would notice or care either way. My 2c worth here.
