Nov. 11th, 2004 09:37 pmFor those of you here who use Fedora, you may be interested to know there've been some major enhancements to the Tracker recently. Since it was written largely as a learning project I guess it's understandable that certain elements would... well, suck, but it had gotten so slow that I found myself using google instead of my own tool, which is a pretty sad state. As the number of packages indexed grew and grew the searches just got slower and slower, so over the last couple of months I've completely overhauled the back-end and added a bunch of optimizations that have made things considerably faster (most notably the package searches-- searching by repository will have similar improvements when I get around to them. I'm trying to get the people who run repositories to index them this time around since I don't have time to do it myself any more, which is why there's almost no FC3 repos listed (yet).
Anyway, www.fedoratracker.org. Enjoy.
I've devoted so much more time to this thing than it looks like, but it feels really good to have made something useful. That, and there's just nothing cooler than poking around google (read: doing vanity searches) and finding something like this:

Rock on. =:)
