Re: [Tracker] Extensions clean up

[Ivan Frade <ivan frade gmail com>]

hi jerry,

 the way to go with tracker 0.7+ is making those extensions write
(sparql) directly into tracker. There is a nepomuk extension doing
something similar already. it is just a matter of adapt it to tracker
interfaces. looks like an easy hack.

 regards

ivan
