We use FreeImage in the NINA project (https://nighttime-imaging.eu) for decoding raw camera files and displaying them in the app. As you might be aware, Canon released a new line of mirrorless cameras last year and with them a new file format called CR3. It will be the file format used from now on in new Canon mirrorless cameras.
LibRAW, which FreeImage uses for understanding raw files, was updated in October 2019 with support for this new CR3 format. However, along with that update, a rather large code reorganization was also done, so bringing the changes to support the CR3 format into FreeImage is not exactly as straight forward as updating a few existing files.
I am wondering if the FreeImage developers are aware of this situation, and if they are willing to integrate the reorganized and current libRAW code into the FreeImage tree?
Thanks
