This is the problem that FutureKeep aims to resolve.
Existing images will
be able to be converted to the FutureKeep standard, but they will lack
essential metadata. Once FutureKeep exists, it is hoped that any new
images made will be done in that universal standard. It is also hoped
that volunteers will go back and re-image all possible software in the
FutureKeep file format.
No offense to anyone who may be part of the project, but that's a pipe dream.
I think a better goal is to create conversion utilities that perform
cross-conversion to/from FutureKeep format, as that is much more realistic.
