Yes, it's wrong

I meant to say, we need these mehods now, they were there although not needed 
previously. All is well.

No, I have not seen this project yet..
After a quick read through the paper they mention, they use Viola-Jones faces 
detection (as we do), normalized by the detected eye location (brings 
difficulties in my experience, as the eye is often not detected) and by Tan-
Triggs (simple, implemented in libkface). Recognition is based on LBP (as we 
do) and, in addition, SIFT descriptors and some improvements in the matching 
algorithm.
