-SUMMARY="An tool to download/delete pictures from digital cameras"
-DESCRIPTION="The first version of PhotoGrabber was called 'BeCam' and \
-started out as a small cli based application which could connect to your \
-camera and download the pictures to the computer. It was available for R5 \
-together with the experimental USB stack. Although it ran well, it was not \
-that stable due to the crappy USB stack. Haiku had no USB stack back then. \
-Over the time you could define the place where the pictures should be saved.
+SUMMARY="A tool to download/delete pictures from digital cameras"
+DESCRIPTION="Photograbber has a plugin system which is based on the BDCP2 \
+API created by Graham Wharton (Creator of 'Exposure!'). With this system \
+it is possible to add support to more cameras. If you have developed a \
+BCDP2 compatible plugin for your camera (or just found one somewhere), \
+just copy it into the 'plugins' folder and PhotoGrabber will detect \
+and use it.
 
-'BeCam' grew from a cli application to a GUI app and was able to use all \
-default BDCP plugins of 'Exposure!'. After some time the development of \
-'BeCam' moved to ZETA. 'BeCam' grew out to become 'BeDiGiCam'and after that \
-'PhotoGrabber'. 'PhotoGrabber' was a good name which didn't refer to BeOS. \
-Time went by and 'PhotoGrabber'became part of ZETA. Sources where still owned \
-by Jixt over the whole period. 'PhotoGrabber' started to use the locale kit \
-in ZETA and is since then translated into 14 different languages. After the \
-demise of ZETA, Jixt desided to opensource 'PhotoGrabber'. This because he \
-had less time to do the development and he didn't want 'PhotoGrabber' to end \
-together with ZETA.
-
-As of version 2.x, 'PhotoGrabber' went opensource! Although Jixt had less \
-time to develop for it, he rewrote 'PhotoGrabber'. He broke up the \
-application into multiple parts (application core, interface, plugins \
-and extensions). With this step it was easier for other developers to \
-write their own plugins and extensions (add-ons) for the application. \
-After he was done with the main parts he opensourced the project and \
-attracted a small crew to help out with the developping."
+At this moment PhotoGrabber only supports PTP (Picture Transfer Protocol) \
+cameras. In the future Mass Storage and Bluethooth support may be added."
