Written for Zeitgeist Framework by Manish Sinha (मनीष सिन्हा) on 2013-03-12
Hey everyone, on behalf of the Zeitgeist team I am happy to announce the release of
Zeitgeist 0.9.9, which is the first Beta Release of Zeitgeist 1.0
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.

What has changed?
-------
This version introduces libzeitgeist2, a Vala port of the previously
independent libzeitgeist library. Now everything you need to work with
Zeitgeist, be it with C, Vala or Python, is included in this tarball.
Please note that starting from this release Vala 0.18 is required to
build Zeitgeist.
Engine:
- Fixed insertion of large event sets.
- Fixed database migration to WebDataObject (from some RemoteDataObjects).
- Events missing required meta-data are now rejected.
FTS:
- Fixed to respect ZEITGEIST_

- RelevantResultType is now included in "from datamodel import *".
If you were using the external libzeitgeist, you need to be aware that
libzeitgeist2 has some API differences:
- For Vala developers: getters/setters replaced with properties, etc.
- For C developers: the use of floating references has been removed.
- Redesigned ResultSet (removed peek() and seek(); introduced reset();
renamed next() to next_value()).

now it works correctly when requesting non-existant events.
- Added an actor parameter to the event_new_full constructor.
- Added a zeitgeist_
- Added a GError parameter to several functions involving variants.
