I agree upnp/dnla is cool and all... but that's now what this thread is
talking about.
A core capability for the new stack is having an extensive metadata
tagging backend that will be used by all applications. We have a few
possible options here, but it's looking more and more like Meta Tracker
is the best horse to bet on for this race. (Tracker doesn't provide
exactly what we need, but I haven't seen anything that makes me feel
that it couldn't evolve into what we think we want.)
Upnp/dnla is a lot of things, but it's not a metadata tagging
infrastructure.
