[PhotoFloat] documentation / guidance for setup of authentication with uwsgi and floatapp?

[Dennis Ortsen]

Should anyone encounter this in the future, I corrected the exif information in the affected images (which was wrong anyway) using exiftool.

(helpful links: http://dimitar.me/change-the-date-and-time-or-any-other-exif-image-meta-data-of-pictures-with-ubuntu/ and https://fitzcarraldoblog.wordpress.com/2011/08/17/exiftool-comes-to-the-rescue-when-i-need-to-fix-the-date-and-time-in-a-batch-of-photo-files/)

It turned out that certain images taken by a certain camera a few years ago had a correct file creation time, but the Date/Time Original fields were indeed set to all zeros.

I’m not a programmer, If I could, I’d like to help to include a check when scanning the images that if such exif information was found, the scanner would report them (on the running screen for instance, perhaps a summary at the end) and skip the failing images.

Good luck maintaining it!" But rather I'd prefer to do things responsibly. And, to stop making excuses for myself when I'm distant. In any case, I'm in Torres del Paine right now (when this message sends, I'll probably be closer to Punta Arenas), so no real computer, but I'll be back in ~2 weeks or so. Maybe at that point the whole mailing can go wild poking me to be a person again, and then I'll get the machine rolling.
