------- Additional Comments From Christophe.Muller research gemplus com 2005-12-01 18:12 -------
I voted 20. IPTC is the right way to go for comments at least for now
(XMP will come later if it's public, open, and free of use enough :-).
To answer Marc Cramdal I agree that interoperability with Picasa would
be nice, but be aware that Picasa has problems with its own comments:
when modifying several times, they are not found in the IPTC fields any
more (!!?). Although this might just be a bug that will be fixed in
future releases.
An other good reason would be interoperability with some hand-written
scripts that would comment more or less automatically a bunch of pictures.
I like the fact that for music tags (Flac or Ogg or Mp3) you can work
on them at a script level and still they are recognized by nice GUIs.
At last, note that I would like IPTC (or XMP) to be the primary storage
but the tool's database could also be a cache of this data, just for
performance reasons (if needed! I have no idea..).
Anyway, keep up the good work! Digikam is a fantastic application! I really
think it could become one of the cornerstones of Linux as a "digital hub"
as Steve Jobs says, in par with Firefox, Gimp, Gaim, etc.
Cheers,
Christophe.
