Final call for testing: Shotwell 0.9.0

Shotwell 0.9.0 is in the final stages of
development and we need your help in shaking out any bugs you can find. 
We plan on shipping soon (one week or so) and can use your help.  Now’s
the time to find that last little critter that’s causing Shotwell to
hang, crash, or otherwise act funny.

The new features and improvements for 0.9.0 include:

– A search bar that can filter by media type, rating, and text matching (titles, filename, tag and event names are searched)
– TIFF support
– Extensible plugin framework for Web publishing and slideshow transitions (all but one Web publisher has been ported)
– Print multiple photos (including printing multiple photos per page)
– Configurable user directory pattern during import
– Edit multiple photo titles at once
– Improved rendering of underexposed RAW photos
– Various improvements and bug fixes

If you’re interested in testing this newest
version of Shotwelll, check out the working trunk
