[Digikam-devel] Searching on IPTC core properties

[Marcel Wiesweg]

Hi,

in the past there has been demand on searching for certain metadata 
properties, mostly those in IPTC Core, but Dublin Core as well. (see below for 
a list)

I am not familiar with the way you are using such properties, so it's 
difficult to find out what exactly we should provide.
This means I am looking for:

- Use Cases and Use Scenarios for working with such properties, searching in 
particular
- Sample images, preferably two or three for each use case, with the affected 
metadata, so that I can test with real life examples. (you can send to my 
private address)
