I will not be at aKademy. 
I agree explaining design is much easier with a whiteboard around. ;-)
I think I have enough information for now and need some time to put this into 
the docs. I am thinking about a "Vision & Future Development" page which 
will, of course, have overlap with the todo list ... I'll try to come up with 
a solution that makes sense ...

it will be interesting to see how this whole semantic desktop thing will 
integrate with the applications and how it is used.
For example: "give me everything related to Mexico" .  this will give me some 
pictures, files, etc. but not the emails I have on my IMAP account (nepomuk 
doesn't have information about them). and the search tool will have to start 
akonadi, if its not running, or I wont gain access to already downloaded 
mails ...

Christian
