-Tracker 0.6.90
+NEW in 0.6.90:
 ==============
 
-  What's Changed?
-  * Major re-factoring over the last 12 months for cleaner code.
-  * Modular approach with:
-     - libtracker-common 
-       (common functions shared across all binaries)
-     - libtracker-db     
-       (database abstraction and manipulation API)
-     - libtracker-data   
-       (a higher level data get/set API)
-     - libtracker-module
-       (an API used by 3rd parties to index their content)
-  * DBus re-factoring and use of GLib bindings (for maintainability).
-    (The method names haven't changed, but the objects have, so the
-     client applications will need to be updated).
-  * Extractors are now run as an external process detached from the
-    indexer to not crash the indexer for problematic files.
-  * The utility applications have all been improved and use GOption
-    for argument parsing.
-  * Configuration is now more centralised and used by applications as
-    well as the daemon/indexer.
-  * File monitoring has been rewritten using GIO and libinotify:
-  * GnomeVFS support dropped from the project.
-
-  What's New?
-  * Requirement for GLib 2.16.x.
-  * Imported libinotify (for use in the daemon for file monitoring).
-    (due to lack of MOVE event information from GIO).
-  * Support for DBus introspection.
-  * Support for removable media indexing (MMC, USB sticks).
-  * Support for meta-data caching on removable devices
-    (see http://live.gnome.org/MetadataOnRemovableDevices)
-  * Support for searching with OR operations.
-  * Support for XESAM (initial support only).
-  * Added application dedicated to indexing (tracker-indexer).
-  * Added estimated time remaining while indexing.
-  * Added module API and framework for applications to add support for
-    their media files to be indexed. 
-  * Added utility applications:
-    - tracker-unique   
-      (searches for unique values with option RDF filters)
-    - tracker-services 
-      (lists all ontology services/properties)
-    - tracker-info     
-      (lists details known to tracker about a particular file)
-  * Added unit tests for:
-    - trackerd
-    - tracker-indexer
-    - tracker-extract
-    - libtracker-common
-    - libtracker-db
-  * Added documentation for:
-    - daemon/indexer design
-    - libtracker-common
-    - libtracker-module
-
-  Missing Support
-  * Index merging has been removed in this release due to lack of
-    time to implementing it and with plans to redesign. SQLite FTS has
-    the feature internally and will be used in future releases. This
-    is noticeable only for very large data sets where a slowdown can be
-    observed.
