[Digikam-devel] digikamimageplugins announcement proposal

[Sebastian Röder]

Here is my proposal for the digikamimageplugins announcement. Nobody reported 
any problems with the RC tarball so we are ready to do the release I'd say. 
Feel free to improve the announcement as you like.

Regards, Sebastian

P.S. I can do the taging/branching as soon as I get my KDE SVN account from 
the KDE sysadmins.

P.P.S. What's the state of the 0.9.x branch? Does it compile without problems 
or is there something basic unusable broken? I ask cause I'd like to do a 
weekly (or something) alpha quality "snapshot" tarball of digikam + 
imageplugins tarball to get as much testing as possible for it.

Regards,
Sero
