RE: [smila-dev] introduction and several questions

Hi Simon,

Welcome to Smila and the Smila-Dev Mailing list! 
It is very nice to hear that you like SMILA and we would be very happy if you decide to get more involved into SMILA and maybe to contribute to SMILA.

1) 
   At the moment we are not planning to implement crawlers and Agents for accessing Mailboxes for smila (cause: Legal Process, but this is not decided by now). 
   We plan to have some Agents and Crawlers to support Access to Mailboxes with eccenca (Special Distribution of SMILA, see http://www.eccenca.com & http://market.eccenca.com) but there is no official release date for it. 
   
   we intend to get Aperture to work with SMILA and distribute it somehow with SMILA, but this is focused on document conversion (which is used especially in the BPEL Workflows). 
   When we will integrate Aperture in SMILA, we will also investigate more the techniques of the aperture crawlers.

2) At the moment in SMILA there exists a bundle for sesame and some BPEL-Pipelets that can use sesame. We have not discussed the further plans of SMILA regarding ontologies until now but we had a demo on the EclipseCon 09 that is using an ontology:    http://live.eclipse.org/node/734
  We would be happy if you decide to contribute on this topic, please stay in touch with us.


3) The wiki should contain the entire documentation (beside Javadoc ;-)). 
   We have further documentation for eccenca (special distribution) @ http://wiki.eccenca.com
   If you have specific questions feel free to ask them.

We have also some talks at the Eclipse Summit in Europe next week:

Cheers,

Sebastian
