I must admit that it feels a bit like stealing to offer maintainership of something I didn't develop myself, but here goes anyway :-) I could probably take NAO - or to be honest I have great interest in the particular subject of annotations and I believe that the NAO could be so much more powerful. As a side note I must also admit that I've found that it doesn't meet my needs for how we plan to use Gnome Zeitgeist. More or that at a later time... I don't have a lot of time, but NAO is small (and I believe it should stay that way) so it might work out. -- Cheers, Mikkel _______________________________________________ Xesam mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xesam
