[Shotwell] Final call for testing before 0.6

[Bengt Thuree]

Hi

First, much appreciating the fast development and high quality code you
guys are producing.

Just wondering when Shotwell will handle Ratings (Import, Filter,
Assign, Export), as well as Location tags.
In essence all the tags that F-Spot handles today?
Is this planned for 0.7 or?
Would probably be a good idea to get import existing tags from an F-Spot
database working earlier rather than later, or?
