The real problem, of course, is that f-spot PERMANENTLY changes date
information in pictures, thereby corrupting them. An example:

1. Picture 0001.JPG is taken on 29th of May 2010 (29-05-10)
2. Picture is imported into f-spot with option "Copy to image folder"

Expected behaviour would be:

- Place image in new folder: ~/Images/2010/05/29/0001.JPG

But the real behaviour is:

- Place image in new folder: ~/Images/2029/05/10/0001.JPG


This will, in the cases where the corrupted year is too far in the future, 
crash F-spot and mess up your database. As if this isn't bad enough, f-spot 
will also PERMANENTLY alter the metadata information in 0001.JPG, so the date 
will still be corrupted even if you import your pictures into another program.


Just a warning.
