Zeitgeist klar til GNOME?

#0:
Bruger GNOME ikke allerede Zeitgeist til at finde filer, når man søger med Shellen? Eller hvordan virke det?

#0: Farvel til Launchpad som upstream host

Du har vist forskellige muligheder i recent-manageren, men jeg har det ikke i F17 :)

Men GNOME er jo bare et upstream, der skal også være nogle til at diste og teste det. Og her Rawhide og Fedora bare kongerne. Hvis zeitgeist kommer ind som fuld accepteret dep, og kommer i Fedora18s GNOME 3.6, så er det sgu cool.

Generelt er der meget der tyder på at Ubuntu vil "resynce" med GNOME på en række teknologier. Clutter, systemd, zeitgeist osv.

Også kom der en request på at få zeitgeist ind som dep.

Ikke helt uventet.

Jep. Og som Jef Spaleta siger:
The key _feature_ of the bzr/launchpad system that is missing is “vendor neutrality”.. which isn’t a technical feature. Please remember that up until recently bzr itself required copyright assignment to Canonical if you wanted to contribute to it and was not a vendor neutral development regime. The lesson isn’t that git won over bzr as a technology choice. The crucial lesson I believe is that “vendor nuetrality” wins long term. Both at the level of the end-user implementation and in the development model used to develop the implementation.

Every “interesting” technology that Canonical builds in-house and then releases as open is done with a vendor specific spin to it as part of their business model. The problem is systemic to the corporate culture which directs how the engineering resources are used and how new technology offerings are positioned. I don’t see how the necessary lesson that needs to be learned is going to be internalized in that corporate culture without some significant new blood in the executive team to drive the lesson home.
