Graeme,


When building the profile with argyll would it be possible that you help us
"peak" at the underlying device behavior with some smoothness statistics?
Like, your code makes some decisions based on the measurements but it's all
happening to some extent inside a black box, even though you supply us with
command line arguments to control the mapping. I'd really like to see what
those non-monotonics statistics look like as that would surely help
appreciate pinpoint errors.
