Klaus, thank you for your input and pointing us to RawSpeed. I glanced through it and noticed one of the approaches you take is to create decoders based on the "format" and use camera Make/Model tags to decide which decoder to use. I am glad to say this is also the approach I was taking and mentioned in an earlier post. I was wondering if there was a better way, but I think this works the best.
To everyone, I really want to see this live in the golang.org/x/image repo. Do we need to create a formal proposal for it to live there? Should we do the initial development in another repo and then move it to the x/image repo later? For a place to have the discussions, I was going to say that I like the idea of Slack, but the free pricing has limits on searching archives (i.e. reasons for historical decisions may get lost). Then I realized that the gopher slack is on the standard tier instead of the free one. So, maybe this can actually work. For Slack, can we just add a channel to gophers.slack.com? I do not spend much time on there now. So, I do not know the rules for that kind of thing. Does Slack work for everyone? Or would most people prefer a new mailing list?
