  Description     : View and remove metadata in files



> Metadata within a file can tell a lot about you. Cameras record data about 
when a picture was taken and what camera was used. Office applications 
automatically add author and company information to documents and spreadsheets. 
Maybe you don't want to disclose those informations.

> This tool allows you to view metadata in your files and to get rid of them, 
as much as possible.

> Under the hood, it relies on mat2 to parse and remove the metadata.

This package would be useful for users that would like to get rid of metadata, 
but prefer to use a graphical app to the mat2 cli-app that is packaged in debian.



I would like to maintain this program and am searching for a sponsor.
