Is it possible that I can get DPP to process photos shot on cameras other than Canon? My second shooter uses a Lumix and I would like to be able to process the photos in DPP.

Not possible in RAW. Limited jpg. Get Lightroom and be happy.

"My second shooter uses a Lumix"?? Man, if I were in your shoes, my second shooter would use whatever I told him/her to use. As in, "Take this 7D, and make sure you know how to use it when you show up for the shoot on Saturday." Why on earth would it be otherwise?

As Ernie points out, Canon DPP is it's ability to let you shoot in RAW and then process those images. To do this, a key feature of the software is it's ability to decode the Canon RAW files.
Every camera (and every camera model) has a different RAW format. RAW is really more of a concept than a specific standard. This means the Canon DPP software that can decode the RAW out of nearly any Canon camera, cannot decode RAW files from non-Canon cameras.
I wouldn't shoot in any type of professional capacity and now use RAW (JPEG files have limited adjustment latitude due to the lossy-compression feature of JPEG and how that can result in loss of detail that can never be recovered.)
Adobe Lightroom has the ability to decode RAW files from most cameras (certainly most popular cameras.)
