"Nepomuk is beeing advertised somehow as revolutionary."
Most KDE things have been, of late. I think for years the KDE guys were too silent about their achievements and content to stay out of the spotlight (no pun intended ;)) but nowadays they've swung too far in the other direction and hype everything to death, which inevitably leads to disappointment and subsequent backlashes. Hopefully they'll find a happy medium at some point in the future.

I think setting up a website to promote a *menu* falls under this description. Guys, the enthusiasm is great, but Raptor doesn't need its own website.

couldn't they all be links of ONE (1) major KDE site?
Why do we have to hunt and peck all over the internet to read about all the features?
Nothing wrong with overhyping. JUST PLEASE, PLEASE, DON'T UNDERDELIVER!!!

spotlight is like strigi, it just does full-text indexing. Nepomuk does more than that - it extracts and indexes RELATIONSHIPS between files. Spotlight doesn't tell you where a file came from - Nepomuk can.

AHHH!
such a lame example!!! and one you've no doubt read in the million places i have.
this is the same functionality my email client has had for years.
nepomuk has to be so much more than just that.

Nepomuk allows you to do stuff like:
- find that picture of a giraffe I got in an e-mail from Joe lately.

You know, I have read this description many times but it has just hit home with me.
Think of Gmail's tags but implimented on a desktop scale.
Folders will become almost meaningless.
At work, I have documents on returns and lost shipments. A lot of times those doc apply to both and when looking them up I am usually searching both folders.
Now, just one folder. The stuff that applies to returns and lost shipments are tagged as both and the stuff that apply to only one tag with the correct one.
I have been using KDE 4 for months now, but this is the first time I see it as more than a "code rewrite" or eye candy thing.
I am excited about the future of KDE!!

Sounds like WinFS (which was yet another Vista dropped feature). Cool to see KDE delivering where Vista did not.
