Hi Nelson, sorry if I make it sound like if you are not interested in community, I'm sure you are, It's just my opinion of how it looks "from outside". Photos is changing a lot in the trunk branch, so looks more open to big changes in the future (gui and functionally), while shotwell looks more like a finished product, very stable. Looks like both projects are in different steps in the software life cycle.
Also, you make a point. Shotwell is available in more distributions, like Ubuntu, and that's attractive for contributors too. I don't want to start a fight or something like that :). Both projects can benefit each other. Greetings and sorry for my English if I did any mitsake.
