[Digikam-users] Kudos for Phillip Johnsson!

While Gilles and his associates deserve much praise for developing such
a great program, Phillip Johnsson deserves a HUGE round of applause for
helping the many of use with limited programming/coding/command line
skills actually use it. Without his generous help we'd be left out in
the cold, looking in through the frosted windows at the coding mavens
sitting by the warm fire, happily using this tremendous program.

Anybody want to join me in raising a glass to Phillip and yelling a
rousing "Hip, hip, hurrah!!" ...
