You didnt specify what level of effort you are talking about. 3 man months, 6 man months, a man year? Also the expectations. Is this a single course project, Bachelor's thesis, Masters?
With all due respect to others who have gotten into a discussion of the merits of portability, language features, etc. I would not even worry right now about these aspects. Assuming a Bachelor's thesis, 3 man month level of effort, I would just go with the language that gets you from A to Z the quickest. If you are thinking commercialization later on, re-write it in the appropriate language (probably C++). If you are thinking that it would be useful to you and to others, then the quickie language is still the best. As to suggestions, the EXIF database sounds like a very decent suggestion. I.e. show me thumbs of all the pics I have taken with my FA85 1.4. That would be cool. Or gather statistics. What is the distribution of pics I took at each ISO (this was a recent discussion on this mail list). rg [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > I have to produce a software as a final evaluation of my computer > sciences studies. > Of course, nothing like a RAW converter etc. but maybe there a couple > things which would be handy to have in a little software? > > Conversions?

Every picture of you is when you were younger. "...Here's a picture of me when I'm older."
