OK,

that is what I propose - just add developers to
http://sourceforge.net/projects/oscaf

Sebastian Trüg is an admin there and can add you and the existing tickets - lets start doing it.

I also documented a possible process:

    Hi Guys,

    I think the nepomuk/OSCAF sourceforge project that Sebastian Trüg
    and I have created
    for OSCAF a few months ago may help here.


    http://sourceforge.net/projects/oscaf

    we have a code repository where everyone can write who is willing
    to work on it,
    and a ticket system,
    and the authority to officially continue the nepomuk ontologies there,
    backed by the OSCAF foundation.

    the nepomuk ontologies will move there anytime we find enough
    volunteers to
    work on it, or commercial developers to join OSCAF to work on it.


We are proposing a completely open source project, no need to be "backed by" any foundation (whatever that means). If the project can work in the open source way, what is the point of OSCAF?


    Still, that doesn't solve the problem of "who is going to do a
    good job here",
    as the problem is not "we have to create a new project",
    we already had that on sourceforge since 20th February 2009,
    the problem is:


 Community :)

    <old wiseguy>
    who is going to work on the 23 tickets that we already know of,
    which were reported
    by Evgeny and I don't have the time to fix them?

    http://dev.nepomuk.semanticdesktop.org/wiki/OntologyMaintenance


    Well, the tickets are there because, after some years of work,
    these are the hardest
    ontology nuts to crack.... and some of them are also from NOKIA
    guys who use
    the ontology for maemo.


And i am pretty sure they are going to be very happy with a more dynamic and open source style in the managing of the ontologies :)

    so, old wiseguy agrees that we must join forces and come to one
    ontology,


 Agree, but using OPEN SOURCE _in the whole process_.

 Regards,

Ivan
