Adding Unique Tags   Message List

Hello,

I tried to add new tags to the exif data of my digital images
using exiv2 with no success. I looked at the code and it
appears the only way to add tags that will be unique to the
notes/data I keep and want attached to the image is to make a
patch to exiv2 and keep applying this patch to the code going
forward as my "personal varient" of exiv2. Something I like to
avoid, but at same time the tags I need to add are very unique
to me so adding them to the code base would not make any
sense. Is there some other way to add tags to an image that
are not defined in the code already?


Regards,
