Hi Konrad

Good question. If you look at 

http://community.kde.org/Baloo#Porting_your_Application_to_use_Baloo

... it said :

"Baloo is not a drop in replacement for Nepomuk. Applications relying on
Nepomuk will have to port to Baloo. The majority of Nepomuk applications just
rely on its tags, ratings and comments features. Baloo offers a simple
asynchronous API for modifying that file metadata. This metadata is now stored
with the extended attributes of the file instead of storing it in a separate
database. Baloo also offers a search API which is similar to that of Nepomuk in
some ways."

My response : it difficult to estimate time to port current digiKam code based
on Nepomuk

At least a small guide/tutorial need to be written by Baloo team to make
transition more easy.
