Metadata consist of information that characterizes data. Metadata are
|
|
used to provide documentation for data products. In essence, metadata
|
|
answer who, what, when, where, why, and how about every facet of the
|
|
data that are being documented.
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
documents like PDF or Office automatically adds author and company
|
|
information to documents and spreadsheets. Maybe you don't want to
|
|
disclose those information.
|
|
|
|
This is precisely the job of mat2: getting rid, as much as possible,
|
|
of metadata.
|
|
|
|

|
|
a service menu for Dolphin, the default file manager of KDE, and an
|
|
extension for Nautilus, the default file manager of GNOME.
