Hello everyone,
I just finished a draft of an Article about the discussion concerning
the potential replacement of Shotwell in future versions of Fedora.
You will need to log in with your FAS account[1] before you can view
the article.

I think I have covered the major points in the thread and the two
potential replacements that have been mentioned. I was not sure about
referencing a similar previous look at image viewers that was in Fedora
Magazine in 2014.

This is potentially my first article for Fedora Magazine so I welcome
all feedback.

I read this draft but I wasn't sure how this figured into our
publishing strategy for the coming weeks. Personally I think a story
that says "we don't know yet what the next photo app will be, or if
there'll be one" isn't very interesting for the audience. I don't
think it's helpful to direct thousands of readers to a conversation
where they don't have a lot of context.
It's more useful to me to have a newer look at image viewers than the
previous article. People already know they have choices, maybe a good
revision would be to show them updates there?
