Hi, I'm pleased to announce the release of Beagle 0.3.1. This is a bug fix release fixing a crash in beagled for some users at start-up. It is strictly recommended to use 0.3.1 instead of 0.3.0.
THE SHORT OF IT --------------- To download the 0.3.0 release or learn more about Beagle, visit the Beagle web page: http://beagle-project.org WHAT IS BEAGLE? --------------- Beagle is a Linux desktop-independent service which transparently and unobtrusively indexes your data in real-time. For example: * Files are immediately indexed when they are created, are re-indexed when they are modified, and are dropped from the index upon deletion. * E-mails are indexed upon arrival. * IM conversations are indexed as you chat, a line at a time. * Web pages are indexed as you view them (with a browser extension). * Notes and address-book entries are indexed as they are created. Beagle supports many different data sources and file formats. For a complete listing, visit: http://beagle-project.org/Supported_Filetypes Beagle uses the Lucene indexing system from the Apache project and the prodigious Doug Cutting, ported to .NET by George Aroush. Beagle includes an optional GNOME-based graphical tool for searching its indexes. Also included is an experimental web based search interface.
