Tracker 0.8.0 Finally Released!
So we now have our first stable release of Tracker for a long time! Here is the announcement.
Thanks to everyone that has contributed, tested and been part of making this happen, especially the core team Jürg, Philip, Ivan, Mikael and Carlos.
Tracker Release Candidate 1
0.7.28
Today we released 0.7.28. We are considering this our last unstable release for 0.7 before we do 0.8. So long as there are no major regressions, this time next week, we hope to have our first stable release with the super shiny stuff we have been working on for over 6 months.
Using tracker-sparql
Recently I added support to list classes which we notify of changes in the database. This is generally quite useful and a common question on IRC:
$ tracker-sparql --list-notifies Notifies: 23 Continue reading →
Lanedo is hiring!
We at Lanedo are currently looking at hiring people with development experience around GNOME and GTK+ related technologies again.
If you have this and are interested in working for us, please send your CV to jobs at lanedo.com.
Tracker 0.7.20 Released
Managed to get 0.7.20 out of the door. Not long now before we start 0.8 releases. I want to start doing this within the next few weeks if possible.
Tracker is looking great right now though. The core team has been exemplary in recent weeks.
Roll on 0.8 
Lanedo going to FOSDEM
This year we are sending everyone in Lanedo over to Brussels for FOSDEM. Looking forward to meeting up with old friends. It has been a few years since I last made the trip.
Most of us will be there by Friday evening in time to attend the beer event. We hope to see you there, should be good fun!
Hiring Christian Kellner
More recently we have been looking into hiring more developers/managers and we managed to entice Christian Kellner into the company. We are thrilled to have him work for us. Welcome Christian!
We have received many requests for work and we are still processing those. If we haven’t got back to you yet, we will. Thank you everyone who applied!
Tracker + Totem
Bastien has been complaining that the Tracker plugin for Totem doesn’t work any more since 0.6. So I decided to see how quickly I could update it today. All in all, it only took me a few hours and here it is. You will have to excuse the crappy file naming and video tests I have to play with – normal users probably title these a bit better I think
On another note, we released 0.7.1 on Friday gone with some really nice fixes since the first release. We plan on doing another release this Friday too.
Tracker 0.7 Released!
Finally it was released and announced last Friday.
As part of this work we added an applet called tracker-search-bar which is just a quick way to access your content.
Here is a video of Tracker search bar in action
So now developers can start getting stuck in!
