Hello, Today I stumbled upon the following page:
https://live.gnome.org/Tracker/Discussion/GnomeOntologies One of the problems I had with GTG was that I could integrate other TODO apps with it through Semantic Desktop, and now it looks like GTG is getting Tracker support through an ontology. I've been developing a task/project-management app. It's somewhat different from most todo apps I've seen for Gnome/GNU, but it uses very similar concepts. So I want to use the task ontology written for GTG. But I have many additions which this ontology doesn't have. For example, things like due date and start date may be bound to bigger time plans, "timelines", which allow for easier project-level control of time, and efficient time management. I expect to have many other new features, especially when users offer their usage patterns. These suggestions will naturally accumulate into generally useful features which I'd like to export into RDF data and send to Tracker. So I've been wondering: Currently those new ontologies seem to target specific apps. Is there a chance I propose updates and additions to the ontologies too? I mean, I don't work on any official Gnome module, but some generally useful and common task-related classes and concepts would allow much better integration, while simple apps can ignore what they don't use. Otherwise advanced features of time management wouldn't not just be ignored, but files would also get corrupted if one app edits data in a way which doesn't match the original app's data structure (e.g. open a time-managed project in a simple TODO app and change due dates manually, this could do permanent damage to the plans and the original app wouldn't be able to edit the project anymore).
