Yeah, in my work on OCR of historical books for rescribe.xyz we come across JPEG 2000 scans every so often, and having native support in Go for it would potentially be handy. That said, massive lossless images are not useful for the use case anyway, so at the moment just converting them to regular JPEGs using ImageMagick before processing works just fine. So consider me an interested party, but not to the extent of being able to offer much in the way of developer time to the endeavour. Cheerleading and testing, though, that much I can happily offer :) Nick -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
