Re: [Openexr-devel] KDE meta-information plugin

[Drew Hess]

Cool, thanks for that, Brad.  You should check out the 1.0.7 release with
its "standard" attributes (primaries, acquisition time/place, comments,
etc.); if present in the file, those might be useful to display in the
Properties dialog.

Are you planning on supporting preview image attributes (i.e.  
thumbnails) when you get the viewer capability working?
