At one point I tried to go through and fix a bunch of crashers and general
improvement. We are starting to do a bit more with f-spot and hoping to get
a release out at some point in the near-ish future. Most of the work has
been stability and improvements and not very much on new features. If you
want to try f-spot again and want to file any issues on
github.com/mono/f-spot we can try and fix them. We also hang out on
gitter.im/mono/f-spot
Cheers,
Stephen

That's my experience too. I reluctantly abandoned f-spot - not due to lack of \
features but lack of stability. I liked it a lot. shotwell is ok but has some \
enormously frustrating limitations. I came across a favourite again yesterday: \
Browsing a selection of images and want to remove a particular tag from the selected \
images. Can't be done. I'd be prepared to go through a bit of pain to go back \
to f-spot if it was stable. It had all the basic features I needed as a photo \
management system.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br> <br>
