I just saw this and this looks like fabulous project - better that beagle! http://digg.com/linux_unix/A_better_faster_desktop_search_for_Linux
I love beagle, but not the memory footprint it uses and updates for mono used to break beagle, and vice-versa. I hope that "tracker" gets in Fedora 7 - and FAST.
There is a fedora package so get it while it's hot! :)

You have been able to do: yum install tracker for ages. Not that Tracker is up to par feature wise with Beagle yet so I really doubt the hype surrounding Tracker.

Tracker simply doesn't support as many file formats as Beagle. As far as speed and footprint however it blows the doors off Beagle. When I disable all the backends that tracker doesn't support in Beagle, it still can't come near the speeds Tracker has. I really hope more people start giving Tracker so attention so it can support the same number of formats. As soon as email indexing is out in a stable version I'll be turning off Beagle entirely. Right now I'm running both. :-/
