Mine? I think you will find I have nothing to do with the JPEG people.
And it is not my favourite. I use TIFF for archive purposes - if
that's an indication of favouritism so be it.

Ease of use in standards? - oh, boy, are you ever way off the mark. I
work in the software industry and the numerous standards I come into
contact with certainly do not feature ease of use as their main drive.

Never said that that should be the case. All I am merely asking for is
the ability to use the format. let people look after themselves and
their preferences in terms of what to do about the formats they
encounter - do not nanny them.
