[linuxola] deepamehta framework

[Andreas Rudin]

Hello all

I just read this information about deepamehta in the wsfii - Mailinglist
and thought this open source software could be interesting for linuxola
or similar projects in Africa as well.

I have been supporting an interesting and imho more holistic software
project named deepamehta - like the Indian film maker. The software is
not really ready to be fully used yet, but I think it points into the
right direction. It's a fully functional and programmable application
server framework - all based on a graphical semantic desktop.

In the first view deepamehta looks quite like mind manager or other
simple mapping tools. But the concept of deepamehta goes way beyond mind
manager and alikes. It's worthwhile reading a bit into the concepts (see
the white paper).

Maybe those of you who are interested want to have a look at this free
and open source software - all written in Java. I know that they are
still looking for people to help them to get it finished. Not that much
is missing anymore - from what I know.

Please check: http://www.deepamehta.de - it's (almost) all in English.

As far as I know some people had already started to build a "virtual
school" based on the deepamehta framework for Ghana. I could dig deeper
into that if anyone want's me too.

Kindly
