 	<h2>What is Tracker?</h2>
+	<p>Tracker is a search engine and that allows the user to find

 	<p>Tracker is a
 	<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_search";

-	devices. It allows the user to keep track of the data stored
-	on their devices and on-line sources and extract

 	<h2>What does that mean?</h2>
-	<p>Tracker is an all-in-one indexer, search tool and
-	<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metadata";
-	alt="">meta-data</a> database. It is designed to extract
-	information and meta-data about your personal data so that it
-	can be searched easily and quickly. Part of this extraction
-	includes <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_text_search";
-	alt="">full text searching</a> (FTS) which allows indexing of
-	the content in documents and other files so you can find the
-	file you are interested in if it contains the
-	word <q>management</q> in it (for example).</p>

+	<p>Tracker is a central repository of user
 	information, that provides two big benefits for the desktop;
-	shared data between applications (it doesn't matter what the
-	source is once it's stored in the repository) and linked
-	information from different sources (mixing contacts with
-	files, location, activities and etc.).</p>
+	shared data between applications and information which is
+	relational to other information (for example: mixing contacts

+	<p>This central repository works with a well defined data model that applications can rely on to store and
 	recover their information. That data model is defined using a
 	semantic web artifact called ontology. An ontology defines the
-	concepts (classes) and properties (attributes) that the items
-	in the repository can be or have.</p>
+	relationships between the information stored in the
+	repository.</p>
 
-	<p>There is an EU-funded project called Nepomuk, where a core
-	of ontologies to model the Desktop were defined. This set was a
-	very good starting point for Tracker but new requirements and heavy
-	development in collaboration with applications provided a very
-	valuable feedback, in form of fixes and extensions. Some of this
-	work is already submitted for approval in the upstream version, but
-	the process is long and hard, so the Tracker ontologies are
-	diverging slowly.</p> 
+	<p>An EU-funded project called Nepomuk was started to define
+	some of the core ontologies to be modelled on the Desktop.
+	Tracker uses this to define the data's relationships in a
