Image Preservation Through Open Documentation 193
OpenRAW Group writes "The OpenRAW Working Group launched a website today at http://www.OpenRAW.org
designed to solve issues crucial to the future of photography.
Digital technology is revolutionizing the photography industry, and
an emerging part of that technology is the set of RAW camera file formats.
Most professional photographers prefer using RAW image capture because
it offers the highest quality and the greatest creative control.
The grass roots OpenRAW group arose out of photographers' frustration
with camera manufacturers' refusal to openly document their proprietary
RAW file formats. That lack of file format information inhibits innovation,
limits image processing choices, and endangers the long-term accessibility
of millions of photographs.
The goal of the new website is to obtain complete documentation by
manufacturers of their RAW file formats."

Stop all the clocks, and STOP THE DOG barking with its juicy bone. RAW's shiny new Pointiac has just been shown to be a tottering house of cards - cards with DYNAMITE attached, and Mike Smith has just pressed the detonator marked "Double Danger"!
This post is a brilliant swipe at those who think they're in the know, but really aren't. It destroys them, dissects them like a master scientist dissecting some kids KIDNEY against their parents wishes, rips apart their ego driven pursuit of superiority. I love the tone - it logically, coherently KICKS ASS in the most awesomely devastating way possible. How come there are no news stories about this post? How come this is not on all the news wires or telegraphed to everyone? It deserves a front page on the paper all to itself.
Is there some conspiracy to try and silence this lone voice of terrible reason? I think so, and it is clear what is to be done. Post this again and again so we can for a moment be transported back to the beautifully clear and precisely logical world of super-coherence that this post conjures up every time
