Please open source "Windows Live Photo Gallery" too (also part of the Live package for Windows 7+).
It's a superb photo management application that was introduced with Vista (similar to iPhoto/Photos/Lightroom). It stays in low maintainance mode since its Vista days (moved to Live apps bundle) and it would have a better home in the open source community.
- sosuke 11y agoI could not agree more. Windows Live/Essentails Photo Gallery is the best tool for keeping the file as the source of record. I evaluated several photo face tagging tools and it was the best as far as leaving meta data in the file and updating the file information properly. Picasa and Photos/iPhoto just couldn't seem to do it and each has a separate database. Check out this post from 2006 where they talk about it and some cases where they can't "truth in the file" that seem like a very reasonable list of circumstances. http://blogs.msdn.com/b/pix/archive/2006/08/16/702780.aspx http://blogs.msdn.com/b/pix/archive/2006/08/16/702780.aspx
