Everything available right now is the documentation at
http://libexif.sourceforge.net/docs.html  You won't find anything about which
library files contain the necessary functions for each operation because
it's completely irrelevant to anybody who uses libexif. Everyone else
(those who need to modify the library instead of just use it) can just
use "tags" to find the relevant source.

I suggest using the CVS source instead of the 0.6.17 source if you aren't
already. The API comments are much richer now in CVS.  Also, there are now
three example programs in contrib/examples/ plus the original exif source
code, making four examples of how to use the library.  If you have specific
questions or suggestions on how to improve the documentation situation, feel
free to bring them up here.
