Can others edit my Photos
Photos NOT OK to edit
I am still in the process of culling image files, updating keywords, adding stars (in LR) in anticipation of passing a set of images to my children.
There will be more than 20-30K images in toto and I expect to want to extract extract some 10-20% as screen size jpeg files and keep them in the folder structure they are now (year, month, day title).
Someone has suggested using JFriedl's Folder Publish plugin which maintains the folder structure but only works on collections but, since I want to keep family photos by year that will mean creating 25 collections just for family plus other collections for different subjects.

Has anyone any better ideas how to do this?
Does anyone have experience using a Publish plugin on large sets of images to estimate how long it takes to run and refresh?

TIA.

Lew
