I use KPhotoAlbum to manage the about 50 000 photos in my archive. It’s a great, powerful application to tag and find photos. However I find it a bit hard to include the edited versions of photos in the database.

So I’d like to know what would be a good method to work with original photo files and the modified versions?

I started today two new IRC channels on Freenode to discuss the usage and development of two great Free & Open source programs, Tangogps and Smile, and also to allow free & realtime discussion of the user communities.

Tangogps is a map & gps program for Linux. Tangogps is written by Marcus Bauer and ir runs on devices like Openmoko Freerunner, but also on desktop computers. The channel I started is #tangogps, feel free to join! (Ajax client and Java client)

Smile is a slideshow application for Linux by Stéphane Gibault, see my blog post on Smile. The Irc channel is #smile-slideshow. Join the discussion there! (Ajax client and Java client)

Let the discussion flow!

What’s your experience on these apps? Using Tangogps or Smile? Best things about them?

About IRC – I think the IRC commands are a bit of a pain.. on #tangogps, I first dropped my op rights only to realize that after that I wasnt’ able to register the channel.. So 4 of us had to leave the channel to gain admin rights again.. But I’m learning :)
