The latest qml version is working now

Are you planning to keep maintaining both the qml and non-qml version?

Although qml looks nicer, I do miss the swipe gesture for the moment. Or is it implemented in some way?

Edit: it does have one error during install:
It does a chmod /opt/maepygallery/maepygalleryqml
That should be: chmod /opt/maepygalleryqml/maepygalleryqml
