Re: [Bug 681887] Re: Moving Zeitgeist dbus Bus name from gnome to Freedesktop

 

Morten we should not break our current clients to satisfy upcoming
clients...
I know it seems weird but I think they can live with it since it just a
freaking namespace. I could call it org.hunannyyumyum.Zeitgeist and it
should not matter :)

Bug description:
Zeitgeist currently uses the org.gnome dbus domain. As we are no longer a GNOME-specific project, I think it would make more sense to move the project to the org.freedesktop domain, as org.freedesktop.Zeitgeist.engine or something similar.
