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.
