Similarly to this potential project, the collaboration with G'mic a few
years ago really helped to add a slew of filters to Krita that I find
myself using very often.
This makes a lot of sense to me. Let me know if I can help alpha test any
progress.
(feel free to contact me directly too)
I'm not a Krita dev, just an artist using in in VFX so I won't be able to
help with anything else but testing.

since photoflow is a full-featured RAW editor which is constantly updated in terms of \
camera support, this should definitely improve the situation. Moreover, the plug-in \
should be designed such that it invokes the stand-alone photoflow executable with \
special parameters, and therefore the photoflow release cycle can be decoupled from \
Krita… in other words, users will be able to get updated RAW processing without \
having to update Krita itself.<br> <br>
What I really need at this initial stage is a Krita developer who knows the details \
of plug-in development and that has the will and time to guide me through the first \
steps of setting up aRAW file loading plug-in.<br> <br>
In its current form, the GIMP plug-in that I would like to port to Krita works in a \
rather simple way:<br> <br>
- the plug-in gets the name of the RAW file to be opened<br>
- it invokes photoflow and tells it to save the result of the RAW processing in a \
temporary floating-point TIFF file<br>
- when the photoflow execution is finished, the plug-in opens the temporary TIFF file \
as a new GIMP image<br> <br>
<br>
How difficult would be to replicate this behaviour with Krita?<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
Cheers,<br>
Andrea<br>
