I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.

Re: writing gif metadata problem
This question is posted to the wrong section of the CPAN forum (Data-Hexify instead of Image-ExifTool), but I will answer here anyway.

The problem is GIF doesn't support IPTC information. The work-around is to use XMP instead.
