I see that Microsoft has released an update to Windows Live Photo Gallery. The build number has gone from 12.0.1308.1023 to 12.0.1329.201.
I can’t see any obvious changes in the functionality of the program, so presumably there are only bug fixes in this release.
I had hoped that one of the bugs to be fixed would be the one that is in the “Publish on Flickr” process. As I wrote back in October last year, during the upload process, the XMP Title field gets put into the Flickr Description field. What should happen is that the XMP Description field should be used for the Flickr Description field. Microsoft has acknowledged the bug, but here we are, four months later, and no sign of a fix.
Sigh.
