I know I'd be willing to throw up some cash for that to be fixed - it is just too handy to live without. Again, I just don't understand why *everyone* doesn't use this. > There are few other backends that are obsolete due to their move to > sqlite based storage ... they need a rewrite too. Maybe in the long run the pervasive use of SQLite will help. Just trying to find some optimism. BTW, there is a reimplementation of SQLite in C# <http://code.google.com/p/csharp-sqlite/> - but I assume everyone here already knows about that. > There are lots of challenging improvements or bugfixes in the TODO > list, of different orders of complexity - so if you want to learn more > about beagle internals or just get your hands dirty with C# (that is > how I landed here), I am sure I can make concrete suggestions. I know I'd love to but am already buried in projects. _______________________________________________ Dashboard-hackers mailing list Dashboard-hackers@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dashboard-hackers
