Hi
(sorry for my lengthy intro, see the main question below, which might
also be interesting for other cameras).

I don't own any of those two Samsungs, but their hardware is identical
to Pentax K10D/Pentax K20D respectively.
Wikipedia says, their Firmware is slighly different, though. The GX-10
can only save raw as DNG.

Now I would think that DNG is not a problem (my Pentaxes are set to DNG
export only, and work fine with Darktable). Ok, dng is not dng, and I
read that "Compression Mode" of "Samsung Expert RAW DNGs" is also
missing. I have no idea if this is an issue, i.e. if the GXes use this.

But I'd say there is some hope of supporting these cameras. However, if
someone wants to have it, the first step would probably be: Upload some
samples to raw.pixls.us....

Ok, this finally leads to my question: What exactly does it mean if
support for any camera is "suspended"? Leaving the raw format aside
(which should not hopefully be an issue for DNG), what else is camera
specific?

I'd say:

1 Base curve
2 Noise profiles
3 Lens correction
4 Direct import from attached camera/Tethering

None of them are mandatory, and for sure you can find settings that will
work for the Samsungs.

Best regards,
        Michael
