[Digikam-users] Another date problem/question

[Arnd Baecker]

Chris,

could you check in the bug tracker whether your
(very valid!) wishes are already mentioned?
If yes, please add your comments there.
If not, please add a new wish, because otherwise your ideas/suggestions
will get lost ...

Best, Arnd
