No, we haven't. (I'm the one who added that TODO item to the page but I was
busy with school exams until late last week.)
As of now, we're planning on implementing it using Tracker 0.7 (which has a
RDF store with support for SPARQL queries) as an optional alternative to our
own vanilla Sqlite backend.

(I don't know if it's of any interest to you, but I also spoke to David
Barth from Canonical last week and he expressed an interest in hacking
together a CouchDB based backend in the coming weeks.)

For more information, you might be interested in an article that I wrote for
the next edition of the GNOME Journal, which will be published next month.
The draft can be found online
