[Bug 579804] Re: Store/read tags inside photos

 

@Adam and @Bruno,

Thanks for understanding my intent to offer a user's perspective, and
passionate but I hope ultimately constructive feedback.

I think Bruno's suggestion for implementing a user preference, even down
to the RAW sub-option, is absolutely what should be done. If this
feature makes it into 0.7, I will definitely put Shotwell through it's
paces again up against F-Spot to see what works best for me.

For what it's worth, I shoot Canon (and thus get CR2 files), but my
import workflow includes running the CR2 files through the dngconverter
from kipi-plugins. I made the choice a while back to go with a more open
standard for my RAW files, for the express purpose of enhanced
compatibility with other software. I see that exiv2 has ReadWrite
support for DNG, so it looks like that was an appropriate choice.
