Beagle maintenance

Hi all,

I was just catching up on the thread from a month ago about Beagle's
maintenance status[1].  There were several comments inquiring about
Novell's involvement in the project.  Part of my responsibilities at
Novell include doing bug fixing and limited feature development work
on Beagle.  I know it's nothing compared to two employees working on
it full-time, or having DBera maintaining the project.  But I just
wanted you to know that Novell is still putting some resources behind
supporting Beagle.

Thanks,

Gabriel

Good to hear.

- Will Beagle be updated to work with the latest [sqlite based]
Evolution?  That is kind of a killer.

- Are there thoughts about Tracker vs. Beagle?  Sadly they chose to
write Tracker in C [WHY?? Ugh.] but it seems to have an active community
and the attention of the GNOME overloads (something Beagle seems to have
lost some time ago).  For example, it is likely to be supported by
Zeitgiest in GNOME 3.
