Thanks a lot. I've been meaning to do it for sometime now, but it's not
exactly trivial.

We need to redesign it as well, but lets discuss that later / in another
thread.

Yup

The 'Thing' is an abstract concept in the ontologies that certain
real-world stuff is derived from. We use to have special handling for "it"
in nepomuk1, but since we never used it in anything that was shipped, I
decided to remove it.

The Vocabularies stay the same, so they shouldn't be removed.

Right now, I think it would be better if you just copied the models you
need and move them to the Nepomuk2 namespace as well.
