CVS XMP Import: Test result

[Bengt Thuree <bengt thuree com>]

Hi Guys

I imported a set of 2250 or so pictures, and compared the by CVS
imported tags with my old patch.
The following is my findings: 

1) Missing the following field:
 >>http://ns.iview-multimedia.com/mediapro/1.0/Location<<


2) Missing various comment/description fields
 >>http://ns.adobe.com/exif/1.0/UserComment<<
 >>http://ns.adobe.com/photoshop/1.0/Headline<<
 >>http://ns.adobe.com/photoshop/1.0/Caption<<
 >>http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/description<<
 >>http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/title<<


3) Would be good to prepare for the following tags as well:
--> Copyrights related
 >>http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/creator<<
 >>http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/rights<<

--> Rating related
 >>http://ns.adobe.com/photoshop/1.0/Urgency<<
 >>http://ns.adobe.com/xap/1.0/Rating<<

4) Need to handle the following
For the comment and text fields, I have encountered a lot of the
following "empty" strings...
      <ns2:UserComment>
        <rdf:Alt>
          <rdf:li
xml:lang="x-default">&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;&#x0;</rdf:li>

5) I get the following om the console when I run the import.
** Message: Bad encoding for
'/home/bengt/test-pictures/2001/03/20010317_S\xe4len_013.JPG'
Consider using MONO_EXTERNAL_ENCODINGS
 
6) Not importing the following fields from IPTC
  Contact                  = Record.Application | 118,
  ContentLocationName      = Record.Application | 27,

7) UserComment is not de-coded properly (from Hebrew)
    <rdf:Description>
      <ns3:UserComment>
        <rdf:Alt>
          <rdf:li xml:lang="x-default">\u05D7\u05EA\u05D5\u05E0
\u05D4</rdf:li>
        </rdf:Alt>
      </ns3:UserComment>
    </rdf:Description>

I also encountered two exceptions during import which I raised two bugs
for.

Should I raise a bug for the above, or will this be worked upon so I can
retest soon?
