Original description:
I imported a large set of photos (over 3000) from a relatively deep folder heirarchy.
Due to the time this took the import was stopped at one point and Shotwell closed down then the import was restarted later (providing the same top level folder as the import point).
The pictures all imported correctly but the events did not.
From the years 2010 – 2001 2007 – 2003 were not imported at all.
All the pictures are imported and if I manually select the pictures and then create a new event it creates the event in the correct place – suggesting that the Metadata is all correct.
It just looks as if the event creation was missed on import somehow.
There isn't way of restarting the automated event creation process, maybe there should be.

neilemms,
You make a great point: if an import is aborted, no events are created for any of the photos which were imported. I agree we should fix this. I'm actually going to mark this as a duplicate of #1151 (closed), which will fix this problem. In response to your report, I'm going to up the priority of that bug to high; I hope we can fix this for the upcoming 0.6 release.
