unfortunately nokia are funding development of tracker and have
preferred to make use of the more powerful nepomuk framework

its unlikely that xesam support will be added to tracker now (though a
future xesam 2 than encompasses nepomuk might)

also with kde (strigi + nepomuk) and gnome (tracker + nepomuk)
standardising on nepomuk, xesam is by and large redundant

I dont know the state of beagle or their plans so I cant comment on what
they are doing

Sadly the other indexers are not really relevant to the major desktops
at this time so xesam does not look a viable standard at the moment
