Hi,

I would like to ask whether it would be acceptable to include some ICC
color profiles from ghoscript (GS is GPL-licenced, so I assume those
files fall under the same licence) into TeX Live which are needed for
PDF/A compliance of PDF documents.

The files from GhostScript which are needed are:
- default_cmyk.icc
- default_gray.icc
- default_rgb.icc
plus one more file from http://www.eci.org/en/downloads

A while ago there was a discussion on this mailing list as well:
    https://www.tug.org/pipermail/tex-live/2013-December/034625.html

What would have to be done to make these profiles a viable inclusion
for TeX Live?

Thank you very much,
    Mojca
