Because of this software, I can completely give up windows and go to my favourite Ubuntu. And I do not need to pay for Lightroom!
I'm used to work in Darktable, but it did not work very well on my newly bought laptop. I was forced to look for options and tried RawTherapee out. Right now I'm really impressed and I might never switch back to Darktable.
I have tried darktable and I didn't like it's management. The only drawback is that is is quite slow, which is probably because my computer is quite slow.

Unstable on both Debian and Mint. Decide to abandon editing an image so you double-click on another image to edit it and boom, the app goes away. Even while it's running, the user interface is excruciatingly complex. Someone wanted a particular method of sharpening but another two people wanted their own favorite ways so there are many methods to accomplish things...so many that you have to wade through a wasteland of detritus just to get your photo presentable. This is what you get when you have an open-source community contributing to an app; everyone gets to have their own favorite and a reasonably advanced user is dumped into a technology rabbit-hole. I'll stick with Lightroom...
It's like driving a manual transmission car, full control, but you need to know how to drive it. The processing profiles can apply parameters «selectively», and can be manually edited using a plain text editor. Very useful when you have lots of photos to batch edit. Interaction performance when switching photos could be improved with better caching techniques.
A worthy free alternative to Lightroom.
I, as an amateur photographer, use rawtherapee to process photos in conjunction with hugin and digikam. It have wide choice demosaicing algorithms, even "Pixel Shift" for Pentax cameras, what was useful for me. Interface clean and comprehensible, but this application not for beginners in photoprocessing.
sadly it does not run on OS X Lion (10.7) at the moment, eagerly awaiting updates.
