Great work, Warren. Could you please explain the XML in a bit more detail? Specifically, I'd need to add tags for Keywords, People, Caption/Title, Description/Comments, and Places. Just as an example, how would the XML appear for a photo with: Keywords "key1" and "key2" People "person1", "person2", "person3" Caption "This is the Caption" Description "A short description." Place "place1" If I can see that, then I'm pretty sure that I can figure out the rest. Also, how do I patch F-spot? I am not a developer, and I've no experience in the matter. Thank you.
