Slagboom web based photo gallery homepage
Summary
SLAGBOOM is a simple PHP photo gallery script which is unique in its full read / create / edit support of IPTC metadata, e.g. author, subject, location, copyright details, etc.
Unlike photo gallery systems which store metadata in a separate database, slagboom stores metadata directly in the image files themselves, meaning if an image is downloaded the metadata will travel with the image, viewable and editable in programs such as photoshop and irfanview
Status
It is in the early stages of development. Although a working version does exist, it is probably very unsecure and is definitely not ready for a general release.
