"At its annual general meeting held in Tokyo last week, more than 50
IPTC [International Press Telecommunications Council] delegates from
around the world unanimously approved publication of the Photo
Metadata White Paper. It outlines photo work flow at many types of
agencies that buy, sell and use images, and offers crucial suggestions
for expanding the amount and types of metadata that are embedded in
photos. The white paper targets the entire photo industry, not just
journalists."
