Yorba has released Shotwell 0.6.0, a major update to our digital photo
manager. This release is packed with new features, including:

* Basic support for RAW images, including import support
  for all common formats like CR2 and DNG

* Full support for working with PNG images

* Users can now zoom into photos to reveal latent detail

* A new preferences dialog

* Users can now open photos in an external editor, such as
  the GIMP, from within Shotwell

* Photo tags and titles are imported and exported
  automatically via XMP and IPTC metadata

* A new photo trash can

* Numerous bug fixes and improved language support

We highly recommend that all Shotwell users upgrade.

Yorba would like to thank all of our bug testers and translators,
without whom this release would not have been possible.
