[Xesam] tracker's modifications on nepomuk ontologies

[Leo Sauermann]

Hi,

we should discuss one ontology at a time, starting with the one where 
its easy to reach consensus.

what is most pressing on your agenda to get upstream?

I would propose you then add a ticket to the oscaf ticket system on 
sourceforge and we discuss the changes.

best
Leo
