The idea was to solve the whole nepomuk vs baloo debate by just doing what we 
already practiced and decided a long time ago: like Nepomuk, it won't show in 
the user interface (if it does, that's a bug) so let's not bother users with 
it. Baloo or Nepomuk are details that are not relevant.

Vishesh will probably blog about the technical side of things, where Nepomuk 
and Baloo can be mentioned as much as techies want.

We probably would and could have mentioned Baloo in the dev section like you 
did if a certain over rated blog site had not stirred the pot. Now, we decided 
to rather avoid it completely.

Exactly ;-)

Yeah, it was a great talk.
