Thanks everyone who answered.
I read months ago Mr. Lebedev call and responded. I believe the dt site still 
asks for the cr3 files contribution.

Though, until the production camera is actually released, and the full set of 
freely-licensed samples is contributed to the https://raw.pixls.us/ 
<https://raw.pixls.us/>, it won’t be merged.

I’d appreciate an update what’s being planned, if anything. There are more 
questions then answers.
Was the cr2 an open format and why Canon didn’t sue if it was reversed 
engineered?
How is Adobe + other open source apps manage to avoid the problem? 
Has anyone approached Canon with questions?

I doubt that Canon would take action which wouldn’t earn them any fame.
I personally dropped greedy Adobe apps when they moved to the rental business 
and I wouldn’t consider the DNG (Adobe) converter for many reasons. I use Canon 
DPP, but would love to have dt as an extra RAW converter. I think dt is a small 
fish (no offence intended) for Canon to chase. They didn’t move against Magic 
Lantern. The worst what could happen, in case they reacted, would be the lost 
effort by developers and cancellation of this format support in the dt.
Thanks,
Jack.
