[Gimp-developer] access to IPTC data?

[Rob Antonishen]

I found a mention that in 2005 there was an advanced tab under
image->properties that provided the IPTC data of a jpeg image.

I see this isn't in the current version.

Setting that aside, I know I can access the EXIF data from the
parasite using python... but it is all a nasty binary.  Google finds
an old exifinfo python module, but it seems dead.  I'm not sure if
this parasite includes IPTC data anyway.

Any suggestion on how/if I could decode the exif data?
