Re: [Tracker] tracker-miner-rss 0.3

[Philip Van Hoof <spam pvanhoof be>]

Hey Roberto,

Would you guys be interested in getting this piece of software into
Tracker's repository and project?

Perhaps you prefer to manage and maintain it yourself outside of
Tracker's tree?

But just for your information do I think, and I bet the other team
members too, that getting your miner under the umbrella of the Tracker
project and into its repository might be a win-win for both teams and
more importantly our users.

Let us know what you think.


Cheers,


Philip
