Really great that you added these pages Ivan. I didn't see the Family 
page linked to anything else though. We should try to avoid duplication 
with the GettingStarted page and perhaps merge the two? I quite like the 
idea of listing all projects using Tracker like you did there. I often 
use the same links for Vala and GEdit to get some help/ideas/plugins and 
to see what's doable.

It seems these pages are needed too - we've had quite some requests for 
a "so what can I do with it?" page :)
