After going through the suggested idea list from the community ,I
developed
a good interest in the above mentioned project where the final outcome would be set of plugins for MediaWiki to communicate with common photo management APIs ( Etc ,iPhoto ,Lightroom ..) .
I would be grateful if one of you can fill me up with the current status
of
this project idea . In the sense I would like to know whether someone is already working on this or this is sill open for an enthusiast to start working on :) .
FYI, there's also a group of French students working on a (partially developed) export plugin to Wikimedia Commons from digiKam ( http://www.digikam.org ), and they may also create an export plugin for Shotwell too ( http://yorba.org/shotwell/ ), depending on their progress.
There may be some common feature list & front-end choices that you can reuse for your plugins. Unfortunately, I've never gotten around to consolidating the documentation.
Great to hear ,I think I should take their progress in to my consideration in order to define the scope of my contribution as there is no point of reinventing the wheel.Thanks a lot for letting me know about this and if you have please send me any links that I can refer to their on going works.
Tell me if you want me to send a list of pointers to the scattered doc.
That would be great :) . And also I went through the code of existing Flickr extension to get an idea about what kind of features should be provided by an this kind of extension. It would be great if you or someone else can give me some pointers to define the border/scope of my project so that I can take a from now on .
