We have just moved our web site to a dedicated server. While it was interesting to be able to host Mediawiki (which is the software running our homepage) on the Sourceforge server, users had to experience a very bad server performance.

While we were at it, we decided to register a second level domain for the project. http://exiflow.org/ is now the primary web site. Please bookmark your updates!

Wanting to provide a german version of the web site, we also connected http://exiflow.de/ for future translation. If your primary language is german, you will want to bookmark this URL to get the german version once it is ready.

You are invited to test the software and ask for enhancements. If you want to do us a favor, please report bugs if you find some. Besides that, keep in mind that it is an alpha version, which means that you should back up your photos in order to feed them to our tools.... read more

ExiFlow now uses Subversion for version controlling. You might already know about the benefits of using Subversion, so I will confine myself to telling you that's just good news.

Just another good news is that we completed a first (more or less) working version of ExiGui, the graphical frontend to out tool collection. We decided to call the current state "Alpha" and will release a file set including RPM and .deb packages within a week. Watch out, maybe that first release will even feature a README file so that you will actually know what kind of stuff we are doing here!
