Release 5.8.0 before Christmas ?

[Maik Qualmann]

Gilles,

another question is, are we activating the Healing Clone tool in 
digiKam-5.8.0? I fixed a few problems. It does not use zoomable view at the 
moment. This change is more extensive. I will change that into the next 
version. Otherwise, I will not make any major changes until the release, but 
will do intensive testing.
