+Oyranos is a Colour Management System (CMS) on operating system level. It
+allows to match predictably input device colours to output device colours
+accross supporting applications. One goal is to make colour management
+useful for all users in a automated fashion and regardless of any technical
+knowledge.
+
+Oyranos is based one the well established ICC standard and various other
+specifications. System wide settings in Oyranos shall enshure consistency
+in a portable fashion. Oyranos will provide in the future a Colour Matching
+Module (CMM) framework. Users can then transparently select a desired
+colour engine.
+
+This requires libXcm and fltk.
