Marcus, no way! iPhoto seems to have been made from an entirely different
project team to iTunes, and stores photos in a proprietary database
format. True, it has one XML file like iTunes, but it also has a number
of ".db" files, a bunch of ".data" files, and a Library.iPhoto file.
Which is sad, since JPEG has so much metadata goodness to offer.
I, for one, am looking forward to some good answers for Vik.
