[Digikam-users] where is the user support?

["Sveinn í Felli (IMAP)"]

Hi,

I just wanted to check if there was any reason for the 
complaint concerning the support documentation; most of it 
seems up-to date and working.
BUT: some links in the index give an error: "The file 
/development/en/extragear-graphics/digikam/inedex.html could 
not be found."
Well, the "inedex.html" seems quite suspicious to me, guess 
that too many thumbs have been hammering a keyboard somewhere...

So, if the bug is true, Elliot has already (indirectly) 
contributed to the wonderful open-source world - despite the 
rant...

Best regards,
Sveinn í Felli
