No problem!

I currently have been storing all of the photos here:

Oh great! Are these shared with the Engagement Team group on ownCloud? I
don't seem to see them in my Shared folder.

There is another folder set up for keeping photos in Shared > Engagement
Team - Assets > Photos (see here [1] for the public link). We ought to make
sure that all the photos are stored in the same place!

If a photo is Creative Commons licensed, we probably need to record:

 * Title (only if provided by licensor, not needed for CC 4.0)
 * Author name
 * Author contact (link, email address)
 * Source URL (if published online)
 * License (including link)

If we don't have a URL pointing to a licensed version of the photo, we also
need a record of the copyright holder granting the license. This could be a
copy of an email.

My idea was to use a text file in each folder that holds photos, plus an
additional file for each email. This way we'll keep the metadata along with
the photos and not some place else.

As for my process in gathering these photos... I started off with a list of

Approaching individuals is a good idea. One thing I'd also like to do is
hunt down the photographers for specific photos, like the GUADEC group
photos. It's important to have a historical record of those.

Thanks,

Allan
