[Nepomuk] Akonadi PIMO Integration

[Vishesh Handa]

Hello List

This year we have a KDE PIM and Nepomuk related GSoC project [1] - PIMO
Integration. The student - Martin Klapetek, his mentor - Volker Krause, and
I, had a meeting[2] this Sunday to discuss how he would go about
implementing this. This is a short summary of the meeting.

Martin's project consists of linking all the appropriate nco:Contacts with
pimo:Persons, merging duplicates, and propagating the changes made in a
contact up/down the chain. Here the chain would be PIMO -> NCO -> Akonadi.

nco:Contact and Akonadi have a 1:1 mapping, but pimo:Person and nco:Contact
would obviously have a 1:n mapping.

It was decided that a new Nepomuk service could host all the related code.
This would include the initial scanning for duplicates, and
change propagation. The change propagation will require us ( Nepomuk
developers ) to create a more appropriate resource watching mechanism.

Is everyone okay with this? Or does anyone have any other ideas?
