I fully agree. It was even already started in GSoC 2009. Sadly we never got it to a point where it was stable and usable enough. But the plan is there. > 2.

Then tags for example will be in both systems. Then the idea is to allow other people to query some of the information on your system and to allow them to read it. But the groupware approach which stores information on a server is another question and much harder to integrate with the existing solutions. Nonetheless the goal is there. :) > Randa is approaching and perhaps you can include that two points into your > discussions. > > Thanks for reading and your work on Nepomuk! thank you for your input. > Thomas > _______________________________________________ > Nepomuk mailing list > [email protected] > https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/nepomuk > _______________________________________________ Nepomuk mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/nepomuk
