Currently my main gripe is that after I've gone to all the trouble of naming so many faces, it's quit trying to suggest them entirely.

It still detects them but I am forced to type each name in.. So is there no way of storing the Face and Places metadata inside the Jpegs if i export them from aperture??

Aperture certainly found most if not all of the faces in my collection but I thought it was supposed to be able to actually do recognition to some extent so that when I associate a certain face with a name, it would automatically find the same face in other photos and mark them.
