I’ve blogged about Amarok File Tracking before and there’s a lot of information about it on the wiki. For those that haven’t heard about the goodness of embedded file tracking, check out those links.

A long time ago I promised to post an update when I got incremental batch scanning working. Well, as it turns out, that happened a long time ago too, but I never got around to writing the Wiki page for it. I’ve corrected that flaw.

We’ve been accepted to participate in GSoC 2009. Hooray! This means we have a lot of great work ahead of us. The first order of business is that everyone that wants to be a mentor needs to sign up at http://socghop.appspot.com. You’ll need a Google account (which does not have to be a Gmail account). [...]

Today the application for KDE to participate in GSoC 2009 was submitted. They check out our ideas page when they’re evaluating applications, so be sure to get your ideas up there! We’ll hear back by March 18th. Some other upcoming dates: March 18-23: Students discuss applications with mentoring organizations (you can and should do this [...]

They’ve just rechristened it FLEXnet Publisher, and I can only think it’s to try to get away from existing FLEXlm stigmas. It’s so bad that according to a VMware engineer I spoke to on the phone a few months ago, in the next release of ESX [...]
