I want to raise the question of our default photo manager application
Right now this is f-spot. However, lately, it has been moving slower
than usual for various reasons (contributors have a life!), and while
f-spot has served us well, it appears that shotwell is really moving
fast and people love it.
I'm not really a big user of such an app, so we need some people to play
with both to tell us if it's reasonable to switch to shotwell by default
for 12.1. If it's not, then it's all fine and we can stay with f-spot.

I have 10,000+ images in F-Spot. I like F-Spot, but if there is a
migration path, I'm fine with switching. A migration path is key. For
me F-Spot and Shotwell seem more or less functionally identical [almost
comically so - I really enjoyed all Shotwells feature claims, all of
which F-Spot already had, but whatever. I guess even Open Source has
bullshit and marketing-think].
