[18:16:11] <edsu> well, i appreciate you taking a look
[18:16:31] <edsu> in this case it's actually a good thing that the metadata was stripped in the tiff -> jpeg conversion
[18:17:16] <edsu> i work at loc.gov and we had a new digitization vendor who were rotating some images manually, and their software was just setting the metadata rather than converting the image
[18:17:43] <edsu> which is problematic for downstream applications that create derivatives which don't preserve the metadata :)
[18:17:59] <edsu> at least that's the current thinking ...
[18:19:17] <wiredfool> looking at the metadata, it was a nice camera that took the image
[18:19:47] <wiredfool> I can take a look further to see if pillow is missing something, but It's going to have to get put in a queue
[18:33:17] <edsu> wiredfool: no worries, i'll file a ticket it if we need do something, fortunately i think the fact that metadata wasn't preserved was a feature in this case
[18:35:26] <wiredfool> ok. features are good. I'm still interested from a WTH point of view. but my desire to dive back into that code is low.
