[Shotwell] Shotwell Fedora packages

[Adam Dingle]

Matthias,

this is great news - we've wanted Shotwell to be available in Fedora for 
a while now.  Thanks a lot for your help with this.

Internationalizing Shotwell is a relatively high priority for us and 
should happen this fall.  Web uploading is also on our list.  We'll 
probably implement uploading to Facebook and Flickr, and will have a 
plugin-based system so that anyone can easily write a plugin that 
uploads to a different site.  Exporting to a set of HTML pages (like 
gThumb's Web Album feature) is also a possibility, and in fact might 
just be a different plugin.

Trac is the best place to report Shotwell bugs.  Thanks!
