Publish on the Dot and also on your and Sebastian's blog. When I've
presented to the LUG here, social semantic desktop and NEPOMUK are
curiosities. Not nearly well known enough.

Well if NEPOMUK is not to be used, then what about Akonadi, Akregator
or any other of the names and terms used? Yes, I have also heard
people make fun of the acronym. To a cynic, it's easy to make fun of
something that sounds like the Theory of Everything. I think that we
should use the term. What other technical tool confronts people with
the nature of being? B^)
