Status in Getting Things GNOME!: Confirmed

Bug description:
Today GTG Tasks and tags are stored in xml files.
I think all this could be stored in Tracker. You know... the buggy desktop search tool ubuntu used to integrate ^^

Well, now tracker developers are developing a whole new version based on rdf ontologies, blablabla =) just take a look at its website http://projects.gnome.org/tracker/ .
All we need to do is write an ontology that describe the tasks and write a new backend that fetch tasks and tags from tracker.

Please take a look at this page http://live.gnome.org/Tracker/Discussion/GnomeOntologies

Here are the benefits of that:
 * all applications can see gtg's tasks
 * you can use whole desktop tags 
 * you can link a task to other things stored in tracker
 * maybe you could get some sync from/to webservices
