The question is having that information where users are going to look<br>
for it, which should be:<br>
<a href="http://www.digikam.org/download?q=download/binary/" target="_blank">http://www.digikam.org/download?q=download/binary/</a><br>
<br>
adding the few lines I mention would be most useful for new users of<br>
digikam under MacOS.<br>
Of course a link to more comprehensive info would also be welcome.<br>
