I dont know how many rules you added to the brain now but to have a decent
coverage you would need _lots_ of them, else the brain would give funny
answers most of the times. What can be really cool would be extracting rules
with simple facts from KDE docs. Else I really doubt apps maintainers will
spend time writing trivial AIML rules for dubious user cases.

And of course we have the problem of the 50+ languages you should be
targeting ...

So I dont think you need to rush, looks like it will be in playground for a
loooong time.

I dont know how many rules you added to the brain now but to have a decent \
coverage you would need _lots_ of them, else the brain would give funny answers most \
of the times. What can be really cool would be extracting rules with simple facts \
from KDE docs. Else I really doubt apps maintainers will spend time writing trivial \
AIML rules for dubious user cases. And of course we have the problem of the \
50+ languages you should be targeting ... So I dont think you need to rush, \
looks like it will be in playground for a loooong time. <div \

class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt \
0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Hello plasma-devel, my name is Drake Justice \
(hallowname) and this is my first post. My plasmoid is OpenBrain the desktop \
assistant. It&#39;s basically an AIML bot (think chat bot, alice bot, artificial \
intelligence) that parses XML (.aiml) files, and can then respond to english input. \
It now has a dependency called libopenbrain, which is a shortened, rewrite of \
librebecca, which hasn&#39;t been coded on in years (and was written in vc++ and \
didn&#39;t compile properly under linux). My question is: where should libopenbrain \
go? inside base/plasma/applets/openbrain ? other apps can utilize libopenbrain to \
have their program instantly speak english, with little to no knowledge of aiml \
parsing. i want to distribute the &#39;brain&#39; itself with the &#39;openbrain&#39; \
plasmoid regardless of the location of libopenbrain. so libopenbrain alone would \
require the implementing app to provide it&#39;s own &#39;brain data&#39;. so \
openbrain would respond to &#39;who is lancelot?&#39; with (if online) a wikipedia \
article on lancelot, meanwhile the lancelot app runner (which will get openbrain \
features) would answer something like &#39;lancelot is this plasmoid, it runs \
programs, and has easy to locate links to your computer.&#39;

but basically, where should libopenbrain go? also libopenbrain still has \
std, boost, and xerces includes, they will be converted to qt when i get \
time. &nbsp;it uses berkdb43 now to instantly load all the brain data (no more \
waiting 30-60 seconds for it to load). i didn&#39;t really see a better way to do \
this w qt. tips?

sorry for the long post. and that openbrain is broken on playground. but i dont \
know where to put libopenbrain u see. compiling the tarballs from <a \
href="http://kde-apps.org" target="_blank">kde-apps.org</a> should work though if you \
want to see it in action.
