[Gilles Caulier]

digiKam 0.7.2 is out for your photographs management pleasure.

The digiKam team is pleased to announce the new 0.7.2 release.

digiKam is a digital photo management application for KDE, which makes 
importing and organizing digital photos a "snap". The photos can be organized
in albums which can be sorted chronologically, by directory layout or by 
custom collections. An easy to use interface is provided that enables you to
connect to your camera and preview, download and/or delete your images.
digiKam includes an image editor for process image corrections. This one can 
be extended using plugins from DigikamImagePlugins project.
