KPhotoAlbum

KPhotoAlbum (previously known as KimDaBa) is an image viewer and organizer for Unix-like systems created and maintained by Jesper K. Pedersen. The core philosophy behind its creation was that it should be easy for users to annotate images and videos taken with a digital camera. Users can search for images based on those annotations (also called categories) and use the results in a variety of ways. Features include slideshows, annotation, KIPI plugin support for manipulating images, and Boolean searches.

History

Jesper K. Pedersen created the project in December 2002 under the name KimDaBa (K image Data Base). The project was released on December 2, 2004. KimDaBa was renamed to KPhotoAlbum on May 9, 2006. Also on 2006, Google Summer of Code sponsored Tuomas Suutari to create a SQL database back-end for KPhotoAlbum, that although functional, wasn't ready to be included in version 3.0,[1] released December 31. This version improved existing functionalities and added support for viewing video files. Version 4.0[2] supported KD4 and added "stacking" of images belonging together (like for HDR or panorama images).Version 4.6.0[3] included face detection.


gollark: Basically everyone would be wiped out in a few... months?
gollark: I don't think you've understood quite how extremely terrible it would be if that was the case.
gollark: You probably should, as bad viruses are in fact bad.
gollark: Markets seem to be the best way around to allocate most resources right now, as long as they're managed reasonably. The alternatives people have seem to generally involve either centrally planning stuff, which is maybe computationally hard and has bad incentives, having some communal system and hoping people get along, which doesn't scale, or voting on things, which has the central planning issues plus exciting new ones.
gollark: I see.
