European funding available for interesting development projects

The semantic ambitions in KDE were scaled down mainly due to one developer leaving after funding ended. Baloo, a simpler desktop search, was the result.

Still, a lot of current software benefited from the work on Nepomuk.

All PIM data in Meego and Sailfish is done via semantic technologies. The data is retrieved via SPARQL queries.

Tracker, the search solution on Gnome, is still a triple store with full text indexing. The ontologies used in Tracker were developed together with the Nepomuk developers.
