The entire core of gtg has changed between 0.2.x and the 0.3-trunk (thus
the number change).  I think the issue is that the dbus implementation
needs to be updated to work with the new core code.

I don't know if there are plans on changing the gtg dbus api itself, but
I don't think the api is advertised as being stable yet, so it would not
surprise me if there are some api changes before 0.3.0 is released.

A release date for 0.3 is not established (the gtg project does not
adhere to a time-based roadmap at this stage).  A fair number of
critical regressions exist in 0.3 that will need solved before a release
can be considered, but development is at a lull at the moment.

I would not expect to see a 0.3.0 release for a few months at least.

I would suggest coding this applet to the lp:gtg/2.0 branch.

I would doubt the gtg dbus api would change so drastically that it would
necessitate a rewrite, but you might want to plan on re-checking in a
few months if any updates are needed to ensure it's compatible with 0.3.

Bug description:
When I execute the following code 

import dbus
bus = dbus.SessionBus()
obj = bus.get_object("org.GTG", "/org/GTG")
gtg = dbus.Interface(obj, "org.GTG")
for t in gtg.get_tasks():
    print t
    print t["title"]


I get the following traceback:

This same code used to work since version 649 (fixed by Luca).
