Hi, We had 5 projects working on Beagle-related stuff, and I am happy to say that they were all successful projects.

I talked with him earlier this week and while he's on vacation this week, he hopes to finish up the school part of it soon. Once that's done, we can look into merging it in. The metadata stuff is going to largely change the internals of Beagle so there will still be a bunch of work to be done. I suspect that'll all happen on a branch. Alexis's and Kyle's work was on doing networked searches in Beagle using our XML format over HTTP with Avahi support. The SoC rules prohibit students from working on their projects collaboratively, so there was a little overlap in their work. Both expressed an interest to work together to get their pieces connected after the SoC project ended. I know Alexis was going away for a week or two after the project ended, but I need to check in with both of them to see what the status is. Fredrik has a good start on the Dashboard stuff and it looks like we have a workable architecture there. The UI still needs to be worked out and right now there is frontend support for only Banshee and Tomboy, so there is a ways to go before it's truly usable. But I'm happy with the start. Trow actually mentored Dennis's work on heap-buddy and while I haven't looked in-depth at it yet, from the conversations I've had with Dennis and from reading the blog, it looks like a very nice improvement. Any help we can get in tools on the Mono front the much better Beagle will be for it.
