Description Jan Kundrát 2009-02-03 20:40:49 UTC
Finish the iptc branch of http://repo.or.cz/w/kphotoalbum.git and import it to SVN trunk
Comment 1 Neil 2010-02-07 13:35:15 UTC
Does this include import and export of metadata and IPTC?  I am still using 3.1 since this functionality is not in 4.1.1.  Thanks...
Comment 2 Jan Kundrát 2010-02-11 09:36:18 UTC
Yes. No real code exists yet, though.
Comment 3 Johannes Zarl-Zierl 2014-06-25 21:01:04 UTC
is this still valid?
Comment 4 Jan Kundrát 2014-06-27 18:25:00 UTC
Depends on what you're asking about. I'm not aware of any funcitonality in KPA which would facilitate stuff like import of tags from, say, the IPTC metadata embedded into pictures. However, I've since lost the interest in this feature, and I won't find any time to develop the old code any further. If nobody else is interested, you can close this wishlist item, I guess.
Comment 5 Johannes Zarl-Zierl 2014-06-28 12:35:49 UTC
Ok, then I'll close this item.

From what I've seen in the commit logs of your branch it looks like a nice idea, but I'm not too keen on porting this to the current master myself :-|
