On behalf of the Zeitgeist team I am proud to announce the release of Zeitgeist 0.8.1 "The Snake and the Holy Grail".
This release features mostly enhancements to the Python API, and some engine stability improvements. What is Zeitgeist? --------------------------------------- Zeitgeist is a service which logs the users's activities and events, anywhere from files opened to websites visited and conversations, and makes this information readily available for other applications to use. It is also able to establish relationships between items based on similarity and usage patterns.

Python API: - Changed _DBusInterface to update introspected data after reconnections. - Added support for registering custom Event and Subject subclasses with ZeitgeistClient (LP: #799199). - Fixed reconnection after a Zeitgeist restart so that the method call trig- gering the reconnection also works -and not only later calls- (LP: #736176). - Added signal reconnection on engine restart for extensions (LP: #806967). - Added an "iteritems()" method to all enumerations (RelevantResultType, StorageState and ResultType). - Added a "from_timestamp(timestamp)" method to TimeRange.
