For a while there, I was trying to get the Image::Info folks to FIX
version 1.12. The damned thing won't even pass it's own internal
errors. However, every attempt in communication has gone on deaf ears.
So, my next step was to give people the option (through the config
file) on whether they want to use Image::Info or IPTC, or both. The
problem then was, which one would you use to extract what data? Each
one does slightly different things.
Now that idea is still stuck in my head and never put on paper (or
screen), but I am aware of Image::Info's shortcomings. And it has been
on my radar for a while now.
