Hi all, I've released a new non-Apache build (0.88) of Sanselan. It's available here:
http://fightingquaker.com/sanselan/ It reflects the current state of the repo (though it is missing the unit tests, test image suite, etc.). The package hierarchy in this release has been changed to not use org.apache.* The concise release notes are: >>> Version 0.88 released January 22nd, 2008. * Added EXIF insert/update/remove functionality. See WriteExifMetadataExample.java for examples. * Rewrote JPEG and TIFF parsing. * Greatly elaborated the unit test suite and test image suite. In the process found and resolved many bugs. * Once again, I hope this is the last non-apache release. =) >>> This project - Exif insert/update/remove - turned out to be much more involved than I initially thought. I ended up rewriting a great deal of the Tiff/Jpeg/Exif related code in the process of doing it. On the last point, I wonder what we can do to reach the point of our first apache build. I saw the following message on the incubator's general mailing list a few weeks ago. Would it be a good idea to enlist Robert's help?
