Wizbit is a way to store and organise your data which remembers every change you make, synchronises without worry, and is browsable in terms of how you think about the data you're looking for.
This seems to be a very interesting project: we still haven't designed how to deal with versioning (for real) and this seems a very interesting (and working) tool. It could be nice to pursue and integration with FSter.

While our tech team is focusing on completing the development (and packaging) of our prototype, FSter is starting to get popular. Let me point out this post from "Quick and Dirty hacks":
With tracker, and fster we’re edging toward a solution to making everything accessible without the pain of sorting. Using these tools we can build semantic fuse file system. Still in it’s early stages and with lots of features to come, take some time to try it out!

The Itsme expedition has just come back from Bruxelles, where I and three other developers from the Tech team had a great time at FOSDEM 2010.
After a friday evening spent sightseeing that wonderful city, on saturday morning we reached the ULB Campus and joined the party with hundred of techies. It's been hard to choose which talks to follow among the huge schedule, composed by 200+ lectures spread in dozen of rooms, and in the end we attended many talks more or less related to the Itsme universe: some of us preferred Drupal, some others Mozilla, we...
On January 12th we released FSter, Guglielmo's Virtual File System. Since then, besides carrying on the implementation, we have been fostering and monitoring online discussions about it. Moreover, we have taken the opportunity offered us by Tracker guys to give a very short presentation about FSter at FOSDEM 2010 in Bruxelles. If you happen to be there next weekend (February 6-7), why not stop and talk with one of the four members of the itsme team that will be there? Lorenzo, Bob, Michele, and Fabio will be extremely glad to answer all your questions about our projects.
Here's an extended verion...
FSter is the first component we (itsme) are releasing to the development community, as an essential part of Guglielmo that might be reused by other projects and applications with similar needs: you can get it from here.

FSter is a virtual file system implementation based on Fuse technology and exploiting Tracker metadata technology to allow access to files according to the metadata they're associated to. Practically, FSter enables scenarios such as the following ones:
browsing the content of a drive (or simply of a folder) according to a user-defined hierarchy or progression of filters based on...
