Is there something to share and possibly collaborate with others? Just now on the drive home I contemplated doing a POC with S3 storage but I acknowledge hoe much work that probably would be.

My journey with this started back in Java and Play 1. Now it's a Scalatra project. I am rewriting the front-end because the original was written with JS5 and Knockout, becoming essentially dead on arrival and pretty unmaintainable.
The idea is that the "engine" is going to be open-source, but the UI would be free and proprietary (you would be able to bolt on your own UI).
Once the UI is presentable to a point where I can actually test the engine against it, it would be ready for collaboration. But again, it's been a rough stop and go. No wonder something like this does not exist.
To be accurate, this is not a photo management project, it's a full on DAM. But I am doing photos first. Could end up being less ambitious at first, however. Even the baseline is a massive project.
