Re: [WG Offset-Profiles] ECI profiles | naming convention
by Meinecke, Karl Michael (bvdm)
Dear all,
we had already a two day meeting (with Florian Suessl, Guenter Bestmann,
Andi Kraushaar, myself et al) in early September with profound discussions
and decisions on (new) CharData, Profile issues. Florian's naming convention
is one result of these evaluations and is considered to fit all technical
and formal requirements. We will certainly address the topic also at the ECI
meeting in Berlin.
PS: It would be very helpful to post the names of [WG Offset-Profiles]
members on this list. Sysadmin, please forward ...
Freundliche Gruesse - Kind regards

Betreff: Re: [WG Offset-Profiles] ECI profiles | naming convention
Dear all,
I agree to Florian's naming convention. (You may stop reading here :-)
I think we already decided earlier (in Kiel?) that we should include
"ECI" in the profile name for the two main reasons that - shortened
version, begging your pardon -
(i) politically, we are not ISO; and
(ii) the good thing is that it advertises the ECI "brand".
I'm aware that Karsten Ackmann refers only to "ECI" in the external
name. While short names do come handy in discussion lists as well as in
real-life data exchange and production, please consider that keeping the
internal name close to the external makes life easier for most users.
This would imply that "ECI" appears also on the outside.
If additional information must be provided in the internal name,
appending in parentheses seems to be a good idea. However, a long
internal name is not completely visible in Photoshop (CS2 Mac, at least).
Best regards,
Hanno Hoffstadt
