Source code modification

[Gilles Caulier]

Hi Anders,

All is possible (:=)))... but we must take care about direction to
take to achieve features. We must be to be sure to not duplicate code,
not duplicate functions, and not introduce regressions.

Currently, i'm review the _WHOLE_ bugzilla entries, to
branch/reroute/tag/close/check files histories. I read more than 3500
pending files, not sorted/classed/annoted and closed as fixed 350
files for 5.7.0. Since DK is ported to Qt5, with the drop of KIO
slave, the reduced KDE dependencies (and we will continue in this
way), the better factored codes everywhere, i can said that
application is more stable in all use cases. It's not perfect, but so
far it's better than version 4.x, 3.x, etc...

The big hole still in :

- metadata sync (exiv2)
- video metadata (exiv2)
- database migration
- face management (we working on currently with deep learning project)
- export tools (kipi-plugins).

For this last point, i'm currently plan to rewrite an low level
interface in digiKam core to play with remote/cloud/network web
service. It will be in digiKam core if you understand what i want
mean...

The authentication with web service is a big nightmare. each use a
dedicated solution, sometime automatized, sometime no. All evolve, but
in different direction. It's complex and long to understand all use
cases. But i'm confident.

Voilà, a sort resume of current tasks in progress...
