Plan for first digiKam 6.0.0 beta1 including students devel branches

[Gilles Caulier-4]

Hi all,

Since the first students evaluation is passed with GSoC 2018, We can plan a first public 6.0.0-beta1 version in few days.

For that we need to know which branch is enough advanced to be tested in real conditions by end-users. This imply to merge back you devel branch to master. We release beta with master. If your code is enough mature, the implementation finalization can continue in master instead your devel branch until the final 6.0.0 release planed in September/October 2018.  

Thanh, Tarek, Yingjie, please give us a feedback about this important stage ? Thanks in advance

Hi Gilles,

Firstly, I'm really excited to here that we will release beta 6.0.0 soon. So, on my branch here is the status:

Smugmug

- Done

Google Drive

- Done

Google Photo

- Export done

- Import : photos are downloaded, but not appear in digiKam view.

Facebook

- Upload photos done

- Problem with create albums (as I have just posted on another post in mailing list)

- App review need to be finished

Anyway, Facebook app review will take about 4 - 8 weeks and current Facebook export tool doesn't work, so I suggest that we should deactivate option for Facebook in export tool in beta 6.0.0 while I try to fix the current problem and finish app review. Besides, problem with Google Photo import is not relating to O2 and I really need feedbacks of user on GPhoto, as I migrated codes from Picasa API to GPhoto API.

My next phase will be code factorization for other web services too, so I think that maybe I should continue on devel branch in order to avoid to mess up master. What do you think about that?
