Re: [Shotwell] Taking over

[Joseph B <joseph bylund gmail com>]

Hi Jens,

Really excited to have someone pick up the torch. 

As far as low-ish hanging features there's a neat branch with some map features: https://github.com/abrauchli/shotwell/commits/libchamplain which last I tried (2013?) worked pretty well.

My big wishlist one is faster importing, there's a lot of work that later gets re-done during import or the results of which end up being discarded, so it can take quite a while even on a modern machine to import a good number of photos, and frustratingly the cpu utilization during this period isn't even all that high.

What's the reference as far as an issue tracker right now?

It would be great if this one could soon be fixed:
