[Tracker] tracker-miner-rss 0.3

[Roberto -MadBob- Guido <bob4mail gmail com>]

This is just an update about tracker-miner-rss effort, already mentioned
in this list some time ago.

Website is here:
http://rss-miner.barberaware.org/

SVN is there:
http://barberaware.org/plugins/scmsvn/viewcvs.php/?root=rss-miner

Last release (0.3) here:
http://barberaware.org/frs/download.php/40/trackerminerrss-0.3.0.tar.gz

Since 0.2 we (Michele and me) have just dropped dependency from rss-glib
[1] due some limitation found, and created our own Glib-oriented feeds
handling library, libgrss, starting from the code of Liferea [2] and
adding nice stuffs such as a PubSub [3] subscriber implementation. At
the moment it is shipped with tracker-miner-rss itself, in the future
may be splitted so to easy usage by other developers.

Next will come integration with libchamplain [4] to describe geographic
points found in geo-rss enabled feeds, integration with libedataserver
[5] to better handle "person" rappresentation (suggestions for a better
PIM-like shared library with useful objects?), and perhaps a first
full-featured feed reader using Tracker as backend.

Enjoy :-)
