Just a quick update
 * Many of the exif tags that were broken (GPS for example) now work (13172)
 * Most iptc tags now work. For example, File:Bundesarchiv Bild 183-18379-0003, Erich Hansen, Kirchner, Feist, Oswald Schelter.jpg which on commons has no metadata table, has the following table on my test wiki:
 * I'm putting off any potential db changes until after I finish adding extraction for other metadata format.
 * I'm mostly done IPTC and plan to start xmp soon.
 * My test wiki is behind a dynamic ip. If you're very curious try hunting me down on irc and I'll give you my ip or you could try checking out the img_metadata branch (although there isn't really anything that you can't get from what I describe above, since from the end user point of view its just a table with more entries)

All code is currently being committed to an img_metadata branch. So far I'm concentrating on fixing up the current Exif support, have added basic IPTC support, and am working on making the metadata changes backwards/forwards compatible. If anyone has any questions about what I'm doing, please don't hesitate to hunt me down on irc (or talk page) and ask. Bawolff 20:26, 7 July 2010 (UTC)
