13 This is Geeqie, a successor of GQview.
15 Geeqie has been forked from GQview project, because it was not possible to
16 contact GQview author and the only maintainer. Geeqie projects goal is to move
17 the development forward and also integrate the existing patches.
19 Geeqie is currently considered stable. Please report any crash or odd behavior
20 to the [mailing list](https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/geeqie-devel)
21 and/or to [Github](https://github.com/BestImageViewer/geeqie/issues)
23 For more info see: http://www.geeqie.org/
25 Please send any question or suggestions to geeqie-devel@lists.sourceforge.net or
26 open an issue on Github (https://github.com/BestImageViewer/geeqie/issues)
