During the summer I had worked on the Tracker-miners and Nautilus project of the GNOME Foundation. Tracker-miners is the indexer used for extracting the metadata from different file types. The project was aimed to provide the support for storing the creation time of the files, and later provide the feature of searching by creation time in Nautilus.
