This project aims to implement backlog search capabilities for the Polari IRC client.
The Polari IRC client’s logging infrastructure has ported from Telepathy Logger to Tracker, providing users with more powerful and flexible search capabilities. Using Tracker to store and access chat logs will also make it easier for developers to maintain and extend the Polari IRC client in the future.
Searching in old conversations is a valued tool in free software IM channels; this is expected to enhance productivity when using IRC.
