Thanks Jim. I missed that ticket it seems.
One more question related to metadata. In the
documentation<http://yorba.org/shotwell/help/other-files.html> under "Writing
metadata on the fly" it says:
"Shotwell stores this information in photo files in EXIF, IPTC and/or XMP format.
Note that Shotwell can write only to photo files in JPEG and PNG format, not to RAW
photos or to video files."
Is shotwell planning to write metadata to DNG files? Or what's the reason for
supporting just JPEG and PNG?
Thanks again.
Jonathon.

Great to hear you're trying out Shotwell. Regarding your questions, yes, we've
thought about exposing more metadata in Shotwell. One ticket about this is
here: http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/2400
About metadata editing, I've created a new ticket here:
http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/3103
Cheers,

Hello.
I've just begun checking out Shotwell and it looked very promising as a
photo manager. After searching the bug tracker I have a few questions to
start regarding meta data and batch operations.
1. Are metadata going to be exposed in an editing pane or dialog
eventually?
I currently see in version 0.8 that I can edit the title and tags but I
don't see anyway I can edit EXIF or IPTC metadata directly. I'm not so much
concerned about the EXIF metadata but I like to update the IPTC metadata
extensively. In a previous Windows setup I liked to keep as much metadata
in
the images themselves rather than in a database of some sort.
2. Are there plans to add batch operations for editing metadata?
Setting my images metadata is a huge part of my management process, both on
import and after import. I already use an external RAW editor so I'd like
to
keep the number of applications required for my workflow down to a minimum
and batch processing of metadata would be a big help.
Thanks,
Jonathon.
