Today's Reader Mail and Rumor Report looks at 2 upcoming Babya software-Babya File Browser and Babya Photo Center and news about Babya bSuite 1.5.
Babya Photo Center:

Babya File Browser:
Also in development is Babya File Browser-a central way to preview images before editing in Babya imaging application.
The Babya bSuite product team provided the following details about Babya File Browser at their blog which you can visit at:

The next versions of the Babya imaging applications (Babya Photo Workshop, Effects FX, Babya Album) will include Babya File Browser-a central file browser-a central way to view images before editing.
Babya File Browser is currently codenamed 'Prospect'.
If you have used other file browsers such as the File Browser/Adobe Bridge found in Adobe Creative Suite, it would then be easy to learn Babya File Browser as basically the UI shares common elements in both applications.
It's unclear when Babya File Browser will be released-perhaps with Babya Photo Workshop Professional 10-currently it is rumored to be released by the end of September.
