Yes! a DNG converter for Linux...
For a long time, many people asked me to implement a RAW camera image converter to Digital NeGative (DNG). Why should one support DNG under Linux? To improve interoperability with other photo-management programs such as Adobe tools, and to improve Digital Asset Management (DAM), as Gerhard Kulzer discusses in this nice tutorial and in particular in Part 2.
I have already talked about DNG in another ticket. My first viewpoint about DNG SDK from Adobe has been wrong: missing tutorials, weird API documentation, wrong source code licence, etc... But after having found this nice web site from Barry Pearson which provides a huge collection of papers about DNG, I had a second look at the DNG SDK.
