Ok. I find that there are now many arguments to use Sqlite :) . Thanks for the information!

Now I think that I have to thing to do: - Make avaliable pan view in the main, maybe as a switch option. Any plan for this or should I start from zero? - Propose improvements for pan view. Is there any methodology to do that? I mean something like: 1. Propose improvement and describe it. 2. Make an usecase. Attach some snapshots of the final view of the new improvement ( you know, a simulation of how geeqie will look like once that improvement is completed). 3. If necessary, propose different alternatives of some steps of the usecase ( or maybe of the whole usecase);to let developers vote ( as I saw in some of desing decisions I've seen in this mailing list). 4. Finally, implement it and make it work. 5. Upload to subversion once you branch the svn. First of all it would be interesting to do a list of some improvements of the pain view. For example, Vladimir told one very necessary: to allow navgitation through window using only mouse; insted of having to click arrows of the scrollbar. Oscar.
