more libraries means harder to use (have to know the more about the design to know which library to use and when). i think a dep on nepomuk is just fine as long as nepomuk's depencies are limited .. if they aren't, then it can be an issue. i'm not clear on what the dependency on qtsql is for? (sorry .. hopefully you can explain in more detail) if data models are meant to be "the" way to interact with activities, which could well be a valid approach, then having a separate lib also won't buy us much as everything will use the models library anyways. one reason to do it as a separate library could be to deprecate libkactivities altogether and make everything a model (with things like Controller simply becoming additional API added to the model subclass) the more i think about it, the more i think it would be interesting to see a models-only API for activities ... in which case having it as a separate, new library makes lots of sense. and yes, mega bonus points for suddenly not worrying about sync/async :) -- Aaron J.
