Hi everyone! this is my first post to this list, and I love the idea of a plugin architecture. I've looked at the code and the highly interdependent layers of code did not encourage me to dive into it :-) A python interface would be awesome, and by using numpy/scipy I do not think the performance would be that bad. -- Trond Danielsen _______________________________________________ Rawstudio-dev mailing list [email protected] http://rawstudio.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rawstudio-dev
