I think a PEP that aims to be a generic image protocol should support at least 32 bit floats if not 64-bit doubles and 16 bit "Half"s used by some GPUs (and supported by the OpenEXR format).
Yes, the next version of the PEP will include float16 and float32 versions of both the L and the RGBA modes. The float16 type is the IEEE 754r one, implemented in software and compatible with OpenGL and OpenEXR. -- Lino Mastrodomenico E-mail: l.mastrodomenico@gmail.com
