yeah, guilty as charged. But to my excuse, back then I had spent more then a
year reverse engineering the protocol and probably another one implementing a
PoC. Remember, the Spotlight RPC service is not documented by Apple and it uses
a custom marshalling not based or DCE/RPC. The PoC back then was part of
Netatalk and this was then ported with small effort to Samba.
I'm happy to provide patches to remove it, as said it didn't really take off,
there's only one vendor I know of that uses it in a product and they have a
*heavily* patched version (that uses Elasticsearch, not Gnome Tracker as indexer
and db). They don't have a client as well which means no tests there as well. :)
