Yes, it was a large thread and as far as I've read, with no comsecuences.
So taking into account all the considerations I'll call my patch temporarily 
a not hot, not cold, hopefully cool, "ProductExtension", because it is what 
it is, isn't it. :)

So, here we are again:

--------------------------------------------


Hello Zope fans

For those of you wanting to use IPTC and EXIF metadata embedded in images 
from news agencies or similars, I've uploaded a ProductExtension to the 
Photo Product 1.2.3 , that performs the following:

-   Allows reading of IPTC and EXIF info from JPEG and TIFF files.
-   Uses PIL as core parser to provide limited support for other image
    formats like BMP, TGA, TIFF, PSD, PCX, EPS.
-   Creates displays (in jpeg) for those new supported formats, when
    possible.

Thanks to Fredrik Lundh and Robert F. Tobler for the core readers, and
thanks to Ron Bickers for the Photo Product.  I'd like you to consider these 
as default features for a future release of Photo.
