yeah the only thing we have to make sure is the the link system is
enough versatile to link things very different (and not predictable) in
nature

and that we can charge links with meta informations :

-- type of link
-- periods of validity of links ( start/end or permanent)
-- status of link
-- ?

and let te the ability for applications  to add the informations they
need  (custom fields tables + values table ? serialization ?)

<dream>
calendar integration (to show tasks, deadlines for documents) on this
