Telepathy /is/ the backend, not the product :) Fwiw, we're using things
like "KDE Instant Messaging" in the user facing things. However people
still keep referring to it as "KDE Telepathy", even suggesting new and
better names. I personally think that general namings (like "KDE IM") do
not work very well. Same goes with "semantic storage and search", people
will just call it Nepomuk, in the discussions, in the forums,
wherever...and for example forum category - if we want to have our own
seciton, calling it "KDE Instant Messaing" is, well, ambiguous ("Semantic
storage and search" is just as general).

Are the results recorded online somewhere? I'd be interested to see this.
