[comp.windows.x] Color Management System for X

adamsc@orca.wv.tek.com (Chuck Adams) (02/15/91)

There has been some confusion as to what is embodied in the proposed X
Color Management System.  The primary purpose to the proposal is to
introduce the concept of device-independent (CIE) color in X.  At the
request of consortium reviewers at an early review, the proposal
provides for color space extensibility.  Both device-independent color
spaces (such as Kodak's PhotoYCC) and device-dependent color spaces
(such as CMY and CMYK) can be easily added.
