Hi Henrique, The Shotwell Faces Tool is alive. It just lives in its own branch in the Shotwell git repository. To switch to it, just clone the Shotwell repo and do a:
$ git checkout faces You'll then need to run ./configure with --enable-faces. If you'd like to contribute to Shotwell, we would appreciate it! One thing you could potentially do is this: the Shotwell faces branch is based on Shotwell 0.12.x. It would be really useful to bring this branch into sync with the current master.
