We will have to see whether this kind of technical leadership converts into swift mass-market adoption or not.
Apache PhotArk will be a complete open source photo gallery application including a content repository for the images, a display piece, an access control layer, and upload capabilities. The idea is to have a rigid design for the content repository with a very flexible display piece. The images in the content repository will be protected with granular access control.
PhotArk gallery currently allows you define a set of albums hosted locally, and also allows you to aggregate external albums exposed as feeds (e.g from Flickr or Picassa web) and provides a default web UI for album navigation.

Apache PhotArk uses SCA/Apache Tuscany composition for it's services and Web 2.0 bindings to provide Ajax style Gallery UI.
