[gil] native image format loaders/savers

Would a contribution to GIL in the form of alternate 'native' (e.g. using GDI+ on Windows) implementations (to remove the libjpeg, libtiff, libpng and zlib requirements) of image format parsers be accepted? -- "That men do not learn very much from the lessons of history is the most important of all the lessons of history."

Hi Domagoj ( hope that's your first name ), thanks for your interest in boost::gil. Every extension is very welcome. In case your code is ready I would like to take a look. If everything is in order I would like to add your extension into my gil_contribution code base. That place is more or less the gil extension repository.

Hi Domagoj ( hope that's your first name ),
:) yes :)
thanks for your interest in boost::gil. Every extension is very welcome. In case your code is ready...
Well not really :) It is just something that was on my todo list for some time now and I wanted to get started with it, in a 'lower priority background thread' as the lib* wrappers are not real show stoppers right now just something I'd like to get rid of in the future... Is there an official SVN sandbox for such contributions/extensions where I can get started (did not find the information here http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/gil/Generic+Image+Library or here http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/gil/Contribute+to+GIL)? -- "That men do not learn very much from the lessons of history is the most important of all the lessons of history."

You could try my subversion. It's not a official gil extension hub but the only one I'm aware of. http://gil-contributions.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/gil_2/ Let me know if you have questions. Regards, Christian
