Thanks to all the contributors that make Darktable exists, and yes also you
Pascal :)
I can only add up to other participants comments on how good and up to
closed and paid software quality it is, and how glad I am that such
software exists on Linux OS.

I hope I'll find the bandwidth to contribute again for some ideas I'd like
to see coming into the UI to improve ergonomics.

Cheers folks,
Florian
