[Catalyst] [ANNOUNCE] Meios Photo Gallery App

[Thomas, Mark - BLS CTR]

Excellent! I'll check it out.

One question, though. Would you consider using Imager.pm
(http://imager.perl.org) as the imager (or at least one of the choices)?
It's more powerful (and faster) than GD and more portable than
ImageMagick.

I have switched to it for all my image-manipulation needs and never
looked back.

- Mark.
