I have read that and I don't see any relation with my people-tagging
proposal. That is about having hierarchical tags, but my proposal is
to have... I don't know how to explain it... maybe I could say
positional tags, a tag that is attached to some area of a photo rather
than to an entire photo. This way we could tag people faces to not
only know that a concrete person is in some photo, but also know
where.

Do you understand me?

I think that this would be the first step to implement
http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/1702 --and the face recognition feature
would automatize the process.

So, I think that positional tags and face recognition could be a nice
proposal to this GSoC. I will play with OpenCV ( and all the other
code linked in http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/1702 ) to have a better
understanding of the problem.
