Dear digiKam fans and users,

Just a few words to inform the community that 7.2.0-beta2 is out and ready to test four month late the 7.2.0 beta1 release.

After integrating the student codes working on faces management while this summer, we have worked to stabilize code and respond to many user feedbacks about the usability and the performances improvements of faces tagging, faces detection, and faces recognition, already presented in July with 7.0.0 release announcement.

Is it possible to install and run a beta alongside a release in Windows 10? I don’t know when 7.2 is going to be officially released, but I would like to try it out in the next few days. Thanks.

I tried to run the portable v7.2 alongside a production v7.1 on Windows 10, but that resulted in an error. I did not try to get it running, but choose to exercise more patience and wait for the production release of v7.2.
