[Digikam-users] Digikam and inter-operability on Ubuntu 12.04.

[Willem Ferguson]

Dear Digikam developers,

I have just made the inevitable upgrade from Ubuntu 10.04 to 12.04. The 
new facilities of Digikam 2.5 are enormous (having used Digikam 1.9 
previously).

Just a short message to thank the developers for their time and labour 
put into this top-quality software. I find it remarkable that the 
Digikam developers go out of their way to make this program adaptable to 
as many operating environments as possible and making possible the 
interaction with non-KDE software such as Darktable. This 
inter-operability is clearly the way to the future, especially in the 
open source world.

I am hoping that, some time, Dk and Dt will understand more of each 
others' utilisation of .XMP files.....

Thank you again for an industrial-grade open source product. Phillip, 
your contribution is also significant.

Kind regards,
Willem Ferguson
