Pippin, this is very interesting...I hope we can get all these ideas written down... Hmmm...we have two pages on the Create wiki which look awfully the same: http://create.freedesktop.org/wiki/index.php/Non-destructive_images_processing http://create.freedesktop.org/wiki/index.php/General_multilayered_bitmap_exchange_format I wonder if we should combine them together onto an OpenRaster page to move this standardization along and push to get it into OpenDocument...what do you all think? It would be good to capture these XCF2/OpenDocumentRaster/OpenRaster into one page/format name...what would the name of this format be anyhow so that it would fit in with the OpenDocument format?
