no, you need to send an email to appropriate box, like this :

http://lwn.net/Articles/162736/

In this case, just digikamimageplugins must be reffered...

The box are :

- kde-announce at kde.org
- kde-extra-gear at kde.org
- digikam-users at kde.org
- digikam-devel at kde.org

can you put a new "news" entry in www.digikam.org about this release ? Have 
you an account to edit web project page ?

Personally, I will update kde-apps.org page :

http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=16082

And that all...

Witch features are better ? What is missing in digikam, especially to edit 
image. I have tested the red eyes correction tool from ACDSEE, and it's 
better than digiKam. Since i have ported the current red eyes correction tool 
to DImg (16 bits image supported), i can study to improve it for the future.

Have you full copy of this program somewhere to test ? (6.0 only here). It's 
work fine in wine ?
