+<title>KPhotoAlbum 4.6 released</title>

+&lt;p&gt;We are happy to release &lt;a \
href="http://kphotoalbum.org/index.php?page=download-source"&gt;KPhotoAlbum \
4.6&lt;/a&gt;, a new version of a photo management and tagging application for KDE. \
Read on to learn about latest changes.&lt;/p&gt; +
+&lt;h2&gt;Age view&lt;/h2&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;One of the new features is Age View. This allows you to add the birth date \
of people on the pictures. Then you can see the age of the persons in the pictures at \
the time the photo was taken. A really cool feature especially when watching the \
toddlers grow. Take a look at a &lt;a \
href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ChIaZ1j_bw"&gt;demo video&lt;/a&gt; to see \
what it is all about.&lt;/p&gt; +
+&lt;h2&gt;Face detection&lt;/h2&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Face detection and recognition has been requested for ages. And now it has \
finally landed in KPhotoAlbum. Now it should be even easier to tag the photos with \
the assistance of face recognition. Again this is demonstrated on a &lt;a \
href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GDvbByjaU9U"&gt;video&lt;/a&gt;, \
enjoy.&lt;/p&gt; +
+&lt;h2&gt;New features, bug fixes and other enhancements&lt;/h2&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Below you can see a list of other changes and bug fixes, which is far from \
complete. +
+&lt;ul&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;Enhancement: Allow incremental building of thumbnail cache.&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;UI: Add slider for resizing the thumbnail grid.&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;Enhancement: Show a message if the untagged tag feature is \
misconfigured.&lt;/li&gt; +&lt;li&gt;Bugfix(&lt;a \
href="http://bugs.kde.org/322514"&gt;#322514&lt;/a&gt;): Allow resizing of thumbnail \
grid without rebuilding the thumbnail cache.&lt;/li&gt; +&lt;li&gt;Bugfix(&lt;a \
href="http://bugs.kde.org/334393"&gt;#334393&lt;/a&gt;): Handle image path correctly \
when importing from a .kim file.&lt;/li&gt; +&lt;li&gt;New Feature: Display images on \
a map (available in the annotation dialog and in the image viewer)&lt;/li&gt; \
+&lt;li&gt;Change: Rename old category names in the database. "Persons" becomes \
"People", "Locations" becomes "Places".&lt;/li&gt; +&lt;li&gt;Change: new database \
file version is 6.&lt;/li&gt; +&lt;li&gt;Enhancement: better performance on NFS \
(&lt;a href="http://bugs.kde.org/340127"&gt;#340127&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;/li&gt; \
+&lt;li&gt;Bugfix(&lt;a href="http://bugs.kde.org/340963"&gt;#340963&lt;/a&gt;): \
better handling of the '&amp;' character in folder names.&lt;/li&gt; \
+&lt;li&gt;Enhancement: Improved category and tag groups (subcategories) pages in the \
settings dialog.&lt;/li&gt; +&lt;li&gt;New Feature: Face detection and recognition \
using libkface.&lt;/li&gt; +&lt;li&gt;Bugfix(&lt;a \
href="http://bugs.kde.org/338870"&gt;#338870&lt;/a&gt;): Display a dialog if \
index.xml has a syntax error.&lt;/li&gt; +&lt;li&gt;New Feature: Specify the birth \
date for people (or any other category item for that matter) in Maintanence-&gt;Edit \
Birth Dates, and see their age when viewing images.&lt;/li&gt; +&lt;li&gt;New \
Feature: Add a context menu option to copy images from the thumbnail view.&lt;/li&gt; \
+&lt;/ul&gt; +&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;h1&gt;Thank you to everyone involved.&lt;/h1&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Git log shows that the following individuals have contributed to the new \
version. Thank you everyone, and thank you everyone not on the list who have \
contributed in other ways like translations, documentation, testing and so forth! \
+&lt;ul&gt; +&lt;li&gt;Johannes Zarl&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;Tobias Leupold&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;Jesper K. Pedersen&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;Pino Toscano&lt;/li&gt;

-&lt;p&gt;Jesper was on a vacation and by tradition this means some news for
-KPhotoAlbum as well. This time he was hacking together some improvements on
-video support - and a lot of things under the hood. On visible side it
-is now possible to select the frame to be used as video thumbnail and
-while hovering over a thumbnail a few frames from the video are cycled
-over to give better idea what the video is about. Less visible
-improvements include e.g. new background tasks manager. It sure is
-great to see Jesper busy on improving KPhotoAlbum once in a while.
