<br>
Sorry for the delay, but we are busy with students working while<br>
Google Summer of Code this year, about...<br>
<br>
...Face Engine (DNN) and Face Workflow (GUI)...<br>
<br>
The students work and progress well. There will be a blog about the<br>
project advancement soon. One has just posted this one :<br>

<br>
and so yes, to respond to your original message, dysfunctions still<br>
here in current 7.0.0. This is why we have 2 students this year<br>
working on faces management.<br>
<br>
So the optimisations and improvements will appear after this summer,<br>
and after we backport students branch the master code.<br>
<br>
Now, I open an important question for everyone in this room (students,<br>
end users, developers) :<br>
<br>
"It's judicious to release digiKam 7.0.0 following the planned date<br>
before this summer, or we need to wait a little bit after this summer<br>
to integrate all faces management fixes ???"<br>
<br>
I'm waiting for constructive responses.<br></blockquote><div> </div><div><span class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif;font-size:small">Well, I would sure like to have better face recognition in digiKam. I'm using </span><span style="white-space:pre-wrap">Version 7.0.0-beta3<span class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif;font-size:small"> and enjoying it, but I don't even try to use face recognition now. Maybe working more now with students will enable a quicker release of digiKam with usable face recognition. </span></span></div><div><span style="white-space:pre-wrap"><span class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif;font-size:small">Again, thanks for all the work you all are doing on digiKam.</span></span></div><div><span style="white-space:pre-wrap"><span class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif;font-size:small">Jack</span></span><span class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif"></span> </div></div></div>
