Hi all

libkexiv2 registers the  lightroom XmpNameSapce allowing digikam to
write to the xmp.lr.hierarchical xmp property. Several months ago I
submitted a patch to exiv2 enabling it to do that itself. Exiv2 0.25
should be released shortly with that capability included.

I am wondering if anyone would have the time to check my patch, make
sure it is correct and works with digikam.

One issue is that when I write to xmp.lr.hierarchical from the command
line, I need to specify the type XmpBag, otherwise it defaults to
XmpText. I am at a loss to know why that is, or if that would effect
digikam.

Cheers,
Alan

PS: I have also submitted support to MWG-KW hierarchical tags, just to
be complete. However, it is quite a bit more complex and may not be
used by many.

PPS: Not to mention DwC, which I hope could be useful for wildlife and
camera trap photographers.
