I think we should ask the author to split dcraw into two files. One free part which supports all cameras but one and one non-free part for the camera where the author was not able to release the code as free software (Sigma DSLR with Foveon sensor SD 14? Royalties? Patents?). We should also tell Linux users if they want to have a DSLR, there are enough other systems: Canon, Nikon, Pentax, Olympus, Sony (and you can use Sigma lenses and flashes on them, too).
