Shotwell 0.11.0 is here, and you know what that means — time for Shotwell
0.11.1. We rely on our users to help test Shotwell to make it the most
polished and stable photo manager possible. But we can’t do that without
your help.
Never done testing with us before? It’s easy! Here’s how.
1. Back up your Shotwell database (recommended)
This is as simple as making a backup copy of the .shotwell directory in your
home folder. The Shotwell FAQ explains backups in detail:

2. Run Shotwell
Run Shotwell 0.11.0 or run from Git. Play around with your favorite
features, try doing crazy things, and make sure everything works the way
you expect.
3. Report a bug
