Nemo 0.2.4 released

arj — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 12:37:07 +0000

I’ve released nemo 0.2.4 today. The main motivation was that the package no longer works in latest Ubuntu. I had a change to fix some small problems while doing the package and also there is a few translation updates (Thanks!). Enjoy.

Nemo 0.2.3 released

arj — Tue, 19 Aug 2008 17:19:49 +0000

Had some nice crasher fixes in svn for a while so I thought I would do a new minor release. There is also 3 new translations and some translation updates. Should be good for everyone. Debian packages should also work on amd64 now (please test :)).

Nemo 0.2.2 released

arj — Mon, 24 Mar 2008 22:50:40 +0000

A new version is out now. Again the focus has been on stability and fixing bugs. Nemo should now use much less memory and some nice bugfixes to indexing has been made to make it more robust. We’re also very pleased that the translations of Nemo are now being tracked at damned-lies statistics and that Nemo is now fully translated in Greek.

nemo 0.2.1 released

arj — Thu, 14 Feb 2008 15:22:48 +0000

A new release of nemo is out. In this release we focused on getting the stuff already there working better (full notes). So we spend a lot of time profiling the application for both memory and cpu problems (things that with a garbage collector is actually often related). The work has resulted in a much lighter indexing performance and lower memory usage overall, but there is still work to be done in the libraries Nemo use before it can run at a more normal memory load. Give it a try and if you have problems, please use the bug database for reporting problems.

Nemo 0.2.0 released, now with Xesam support

arj — Thu, 10 Jan 2008 16:29:31 +0000

We’re very pleased to announce a new version of Nemo. Nemo is the first software to support the new standard Xesam, for talking to desktop search servers. In this release we have only tested the Xesam interface against the beagle xesam adaptor (version 0.2 with the following patches required) but it should work against all complying servers. The performance compared to tracker has been a lot better because of the improved way one can query data. Tracker is slated to support Xesam in the next major release. Furthermore the indexing performance has been improved a lot and a dialog has been added to the tray to monitor the progress.

Please use the newly created mailing list for reporting feedback/bugs/wishes. Thanks!

Mailing list up and running

We now have a mailing list up and running (yeah I know we are slow ;-)). Please use that for questions, discussion and bug reports.

nemo 0.1.2 released

arj — Thu, 13 Dec 2007 13:15:09 +0000

0.1.1 had a small bug that caused the program to die with an sql exception so we now have a version out. Download the new source here and debian package here.

Nemo 0.1.1 released

arj — Wed, 12 Dec 2007 18:55:48 +0000

Release early, release often and with that Nemo 0.1.1 is out. Nemo 0.1.1is, as the version number indicates, a minor release to fix some of the major bugs in the first alpha release. The two biggest being, the program crashing at randomly and a big memory leak. We also have our very first two external translations, Swedish and Czech thanks to Erik Piehl and Patrik Šíma. Finally we now have a public svn repository working at gnome.org. We hope to have the full infrastructure up and running for the next major version that will feature a much better indexing mechanism so that it won’t kill your machine on first run :-)

You know where you saw it first

Hot on the heels of the Nemo alpha release, google has now added colors to their labels as well :-)

Nemo 0.1 alpha tour

admin — Wed, 28 Nov 2007 11:36:05 +0000

Here’s a quick tour of what the alpha release can do.

The default month view:

The month with only starred files shown:

Show only files with the label “iola”:

Show only files with the label “iola” that are also starred:

Files with either the label “iola” or the label “mono”:

You can also search in the contents of files with the help of an external full-text file indexer (currently we support Tracker):

If there are too many files to show they’re collapsed. You can press “more” to get to them:

Or go the day view:

Here’s the year view. Before we make any restrictions there are lots of files, so it’s hard to find stuff:

So let’s just show the images:

Or those with the label “monodevelop”:

That’s all folks. If you want to see more, you’ll have to download it and try it yourself. :-)
