[Digikam-users] F-Spot --> Digikam

[Gilles Caulier]

Hi all,

Fabien, if users have a script to move from f-spot to digiKam, i will be
happy to see it on digiKam FAQ web project page.

I lets script guru find a right way to give a fine solution. I'm not a
really good script developper. I still better C++ developper (:=))))

Me and Marcel are available if you have specific questions related to
digiKam DB...

Gilles
