I think the DT-devs are only gone half the way. The next step will be to
remove all controls and set the selection of used modules and there
parameter with a tiny AI. The only option for the user will be a button
'Next try' to run the AI again.

Hello!

Some news about darktable positioning.

The good news is darktable binary is now half the size of previous
release. Thanks to the removal of most superfluous modules that almost
nobody uses like velvia, tone curves, liquify... The GUI is now lighter
than ever.

Some views have also been removed like Map, Tethering, Slideshow to
keep the most important ones.

All remaining modules have also been revamped to remove many controls
and keep them usable by beginners (most dev modules have now one or two
sliders), the others parameters have good defaults or computed based on
the others. This will be a good ground to attract beginners, for hard-
core people it is highly advised to keep 3.4.1.

These decisions are been made because the dev community is too small
and we cannot at this stage support all the base code. We have decided
to keep Windows for now but the MacOS port will be removed.

The 3.6 release is still plan for end of June or very early in July.

Regards,
