Hej guys,

thanks for your Christmas-Release, I really enjoy the new version and its advantages. Especially great (I didn'Ät expect that) is the auto-import feature if I develop RAW images and export jpegs with another editor/DAM than Shotwell - automatically added. Great.

But I'm wondering: after enabling the "write metadata to files" option, I get all my tags written into the jpegs - that works great. But what happens to tags assigned to RAW files? Mostly, those files get a XMP sidecar file and aren't touched at all (only read access). Does Shotwell write tags in XMP files? If not, it would be great do ad this as a feature - write them that others can access and read them as well so that one gets a unified ta handling in the whole photo workflow process.

I attached a sample xmp-file used by darktable (http://darktable.sf.net) including three different tags: "Stockholm", "Portrait" and "Gamla Stan"

I created a ticket for this too (see http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/3035) but I thought maybe this is something for discussion.

best regards,
Simon
