This is 2021: what’s coming in free/libre software (Libre Arts)

Libre Arts (formerly Libre Graphics World) has posted a comprehensivesurvey of what 2021 might hold for a wide range of freecontent-creation software.

The topic of fullscreen color management implementation in Wayland is back,and it's a kinda frustrating story. In a nutshell:

• people who are now working on this (Collabora developers) seem to havelittle experience with color management but they appear to be motivated tohack on the code;
• all the while people who have a crapload of experience with colormanagement have had bad experience discussing this before, do not like theapproach by the new team, and don't seem excited to contribute to this neweffort (Graeme's spec proposal is still available).

So we might end up with an implementation that is not suitable forprofessional work.
