ANNOUNCE: Beagle 0.3.2

Hi,
  I am pleased to announce the release of Beagle 0.3.2. This
release
fixes the problem of building beagle using mono 1.2.6 and
another
problem of building beagle with Avahi support. We have also
started
using Hal to get information about battery and AC status;
thus
NDesk-DBus is now a dependency of Beagle.

THE SHORT OF IT
---------------

To download the 0.3.0 release or learn more about Beagle,
visit
the Beagle web page:

WHAT IS BEAGLE?
---------------

Beagle is a Linux desktop-independent service which
transparently and
unobtrusively indexes your data in real-time.  For example:

* Files are immediately indexed when they are created, are
re-indexed
 when they are modified, and are dropped from the index upon
deletion.
* E-mails are indexed upon arrival.
* IM conversations are indexed as you chat, a line at a
time.
* Web pages are indexed as you view them (with a browser
extension).
* Notes and address-book entries are indexed as they are
created.

Beagle supports many different data sources and file
formats.  For a
complete listing, visit:

  http://
beagle-project.org/Supported_Filetypes

Beagle uses the Lucene indexing system from the Apache
project and the
prodigious Doug Cutting, ported to .NET by George Aroush.

Beagle includes an optional GNOME-based graphical tool for
searching
its indexes. Also included is an experimental web based
search interface.

NOTABLE CHANGES BETWEEN 0.3.1 and 0.3.2
-----------------------------------------

* Use Hal to monitor battery and AC power. Earlier we
monitored a
fixed set of files in the /proc filesystem. Now we require
NDesk-DBus.

* Fix building with mono 1.2.6 [bgo #503639].

* Add a couple of Avahi specific missing files.

* Fix several bugs in handling exclude directories and
patterns in the
Filesystem backend.

* Fix a crash in the Nautilus backend when it tries to index
temporary
files [bgo #504192].

* Fix monodoc and manpages filter. Add support for gzip and
bzip2
compressed manpages.

* Fix a bug in beagle-build-index where new files would not
be indexed.

* Fix --enable-deletion in beagle-build-index. Set
--enable-deletion
for system-wide indexes.

* New Empathy backend.

* Store file size for files from the filesystem, in archives
and in
email attachments.

* Show a larger snippet in the tooltip in beagle-search.

* Allow users to bookmark webinterface searches.

* Also display the time of recently modified results in the
webinterface.

* Add --write-xml and --read-xml options to beagle-config to
enable
non-C# programs to read and set config options.

* Show documentation results in beagle-search when started
with
--search-docs option.

* Add system-wide crawl rules for manpages and monodoc
files. Keep
them disabled by default.

* Show the system-wide indexes in the backend chooser of
beagle-settings.

* Translations:
  - Swedish (Daniel Nylander)
  - Spanish (Jorge Gonzalez)
