Because of recent interest in libora I have been motivated to look into the code again for documentation purposes. I have also noticed that my next step (when I put the project on hold in February) would be to add metadata support. This seemed like a step into the uncharted territory at the time as I had no impression that any consensus had been established for metadata in OpenRaster ... except for the format which looks like it is going to be XMP.
So before I start diving deeper into this (when I will have some time) I would like to know if any application that supports ora files already implemented some kind of metadata support and if we can build on that? Also, what kind of libraries do you use to manage XMP or what XMP libraries do you know at all? For libora I am thinking of using exempi [1]. Any thoughts on that? The thing that worries me a bit with XMP in general is that it looks extremely complicated ... but on the other hand it is very flexible and standardized. Does anyone have any experience with XMP and would be willing to help (at least as a consultant)?
