The future of Exiv2

What happens to Exiv2 in future is a matter for the community. I returned from retirement to deal with Exiv2 v0.27.3 as progress on v0.28 is glacial.

I am writing a book called Image Metadata and Exiv2 Architecture.

I will be 70 in January and will retire after LGM 2021. I would like to give a talk at LGM in Rennes in May 2021 and run an afternoon work-shop to discuss the book.

I hope the Community at LGM 2021 will discuss the future of Exiv2.
