The goals for the 2.23/24 series are:

<ul>
<li>use del.icio.us API instead of RSS feeds</li>
<li>use Evolution python bindings from gnome-python-desktop (<a href="http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=512116>#512116</a>)</li>
<li>close window when it losses focus</li>
<li>support FF >= 3.0 (requires Python 2.5 or sqlite module as external dependency) (<a href="http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=468325>#468325</a>)</li>
<li>Indexer is re-created each time when Deskbar is started. Saving and loading the data should be faster</li>
<li>Find text anywhere in the name of files and folders not only at the beginning (<a href="http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=491404>#491404</a>)</li>
<li>Add finished signal to module API. Should be emitted when the module finished searching. (<a href="http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=508590>#508590</a>)</li>
<li>Don't require to type in the whole command for programs in $PATH (someone already wrote such a module for old API)</li>
</ul>
