Hi Roman -

Yes, I was aware of the need to open an issue at <
https://redmine.darktable.org/projects/darktable/issues/new>.

The camera I'm trying to get samples uploaded to <raw.pixls.us> is for the
new Sony ILCE-7RM3, not the DSC-RX10M3.

The ILCE-7RM3 just started shipping in Europe and Asia last month and a few
are beginning to be shipped in the U.S., where I live. (I just ordered one,
but it looks like it will be a few weeks before it arrives. A friend had
one on preorder early, so he may get it in a week or so and I'll be able to
get the samples at that time. It's an extremely popular camera that people
are really going nuts over. So if at all possible, it really should be
included in the upcoming 2.4.0 release--if at all possible. Of course, I
understand if it's too late for this release.)

So I've been lobbying various forums to try and get someone to upload the
requisite samples to <raw.pixls.us>, after which, I had planned to open an
issue at <https://redmine.darktable.org/projects/darktable/issues/new>.

Is that the correct process given I can't submit the samples myself as yet?

Thanks for your help!

Bob
