Gilles, I am not certain that the problem is obsolete just because of proper
XMP support. The world is full of photos tagged with Irfanview, Photoshop <
CS1, and other applications that have written and still do write IPTC. These
photos follow a very popular specification, and Digikam does not yet follow
that specification. This would be like abandoning HTML 3 support in a web
browser just because the browser now support HTML 5. The old documents are
still in use.
