Hello,
Some people would be interested in working on a library for image manipulation, based on some code Robert Strandh wrote a few years ago. We think it would be nice to have that project hosted on common-lisp.net. Here are the details:
Project name: image
Developer names: Robert Strandh Arnaud Rouanet Matthieu Villeneuve
License: LGPL or LLGPL
Description: image is a Common Lisp image manipulation library. Its goal is to allow handling images in various formats (grey, RGB, YUV, indexed, etc.), loading/saving using various file formats (PNM, PNG, etc.), and operations on images.
Status: Data structures exist for most image formats. Loading/saving works for PNM formats.
Thanks,

Sounds very good!
Approved, although...
Project name: image
...i would like to ask you to think about it again. "image" is perhaps too canonical as a name. After all, it is not an image, but a library to manipulate images.
IMHO, anyway.

Ok. I thought of the library as a kind of "canonical" one (hoping that it becomes a de facto standard for image manipulation, with lots of contributors and users), but that may seem too ambitious.
I had a hard time thinking about an alternate name, Nikodemus suggested "imago" on #lisp, and I like it. Would that be valid?
