I think that a program on Digikam would be a great idea. I don't know
how to exploit it to it's full potential.

Every amateur and pro needs back end processing, usually done on

most people are looking for an alternative. One option is
http://www.digikam.org/ a program created by photographers focused on
there needed. Thus I will ask the obligatory question if and when I
become proficient enough, would a talk in this subject be of interest
to the group?
Also of note are these two local Photography groups:
http://www.midhudsonphotographyclub.org
http://www.hvphotonet.org/
If anyone has any insights in to these local groups /*please contact
me off the list.*/ The idea is to create a presentation on Digikam and
be able to "re-use" it for other groups. To "introduce" F/OSS to
people that may not have been formally introduced.
