Media Metadata

There has been discussion about creating a media metadata tool for Plone which would inspect an uploaded file, determine it's file type (JPG, MP3, OGG, MPEG, etc.) and choose an appropriate parser to extract any relevant metadata from the file (IPTC, EXIF, ID3, etc.)

Jean Jordaan has written up an improvement proposal for media metadata which has been reviewed and blessed by Sidnei da Silva (dreamcatcher), also with input from Kapil (hazmat) and Godefroid (gotcha).

This tool looks like a prime candidate for using Zope 3 adaptors and interfaces, and might make a good topic to investigate during the snow sprint. Perhaps Jean can join as a remote sprinter?
