Hi Germano,

Thanks for the clarification. I was actually unsure about whether to
use an uppercase or lowercase 'd', and I appreciate having that cleared
up.

Regarding the version of darktable to use, would it be better to base
the article(s) on the newest version, or the version currently
available in the Fedora repos (which is showing as 1.6.9 on my
machine)?

Regards,
James
