Hi all, 

Since digiKam use Exiv2 library, i have built a new "Metadata" sidebar to 
display standard Exif,  IPTC, and Exif MakerNotes to remplace the old exif 
viewer based on libkexif. Take a look here :

Actually, only JPEG and CRW files are supported (depending on Exiv2 library), 
but i will make a metadata parser to check TIFF and PNG files.

The current implementation staying on my computer until i have completed all 
indeep tests. I'm not sure to provide it to 0.9.0, because i need to check it 
using a complete collection of image files including metadata (JPEG, TIFF and 
PNG). 

If any digiKam users use recent cameras (with marker notes) or any commercial 
programs to tag images using IPTC (Adobe soft in photograph workflow for 
example), let's me hear...

Thanks in advance for your help...
