Hi,
Yep, if the article it's a short explanation it doesn't make sense to
include an interview!
I like your idea, Jos, to have a continuous flow of communication about
this. Regarding the increase of our communications channels, Linux.com or
related pages 'official' pages are a natural way to increase our audience,
if we want to keep the interview as an 'official' KDE content.
But of course, I miss some things about the Linux english-written media! :D
Apart from that, I think that it'll be nice to make some graphics about the
impressive increase of velocity and the reduction of CPU usage that Baloo
brings. This could help us to 'sell' that Baloo is better and reflect that
the Nepomuk 'bad days' are gone in a factual way. It'll better if it can be
included in the planned article.
What do you think?

</div>Hi martín,<br>
<br>
Thanks, that is a great idea. It won't fit as part of the article<br>
itself (we want to keep that from getting too long) but it DOES fit in<br>
a concerted effort to communicate about Baloo. We could either publish<br>
this interview on the Dot a week, maybe two, after the first article<br>
to keep some attention on Baloo (and make sure we answer questions<br>
people have) or we could publish it roughly simultaneously in another<br>
channel, for example <a href="http://linux.com" target="_blank">linux.com</a> \
(although I'm not too happy about the<br> visibility of original content there) \
or another site.<br> <br>
As a journalist, you might have an idea about how to reach the most people ;-)<br>

</div>Absolutely. At the same time, as I point out, we should avoid making<br>
people thing it is a entirely-from-scratch project as they have<br>
(rightfully) had enough of such projects - they will immediately bring<br>
up Akonadi and "KDE 4.0". Our message needs to be carefully tuned to<br>
avoid the Nepomuk haters from immediately yelling at Baloo, yet not<br>
create the impression we didn't learn from what went before.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Jos<br>
