Hi

 Why not...

* XESAM open source project that maintains three pieces
  - An ontology (based on nepomuk [keeping names etc.], community driven).
  - An API for client applications (give it a proper name)
  - A query language (very probably sparQL)

 This makes happy the people in KDE, GNOME, freedesktop and open source
fans. It is simple and understandable. Am i missing anything?

 Regards,

Ivan
