Julian, I didn't mean to imply that you were being unfriendly ;-)

This list has quite a lot of traffic and obviously there's regular 
visitors, developers and newcomers, all of them users. My observation 
was that often questions and "reports" of problems receive no reply from 
anyone, which gives the impression that digikam developers are not so 
much oriented towards users as to themselves. This may not be "true", 
but it's the impression I get.
