awesome...please add to htaccess or apache conf the proper redirects:

RedirectPermanent http://live.gnome.org/ResearchAndDevelopment/Tracker
http://www.gnome.org/~jamiemcc/tracker/

or

#REDIRECT [http://NEW_LINK NEW_NAME]

Awesome, but let's get tracker-project.org as the domain. Ok, who is
going to buy tracker-project.org...Jamie? I will make a donation towards

awesome...good to keep in core devs. name(s). and track these on the
consolidated wiki (all accounts and who owns them to increase bus count)

Same, make sure there are redirects in the wiki. I believe it is:

#REDIRECT [http://NEW_LINK NEW_NAME]
