Hi Norbert, Henrique and others,

A big thanks to you, Norbert, for rebasing the faces branch onto the
current git master. This definitely makes you the Shotwell Hero of the
Week! The faces branch in the Shotwell repo was updated with your
merged changes this morning.

To Henrique and others who want to try out the Faces tool: this is a
great time to do it because right now the faces branch is fully
up-to-date with Shotwell master. If you'd like to play around with the
faces tool, just clone the Shotwell repo and do a:

  $ git checkout faces

You'll then need to run ./configure with --enable-faces.

Cheers and thanks,
Lucas
