Hi,
I have not written anything about it, and it's just ideas that I have. The main goal of the semantics is that once you created that "extension points" from your domain model - your metadata, you can now use semantic modeling (is that the right phrase?) like topic maps and RDF to define the relationship between them.
You already have a lot of information, which cost you close to nothing to create (sell sell ;-) ) by defining the mapping (meta- data, relationships), and if you went the extra mile and created "common-metadata", than you have a single source of metadata definition (that semantics will be able to utilize as well). So now, if you wish to define semantic relationship on top of all that, thats where I think that Semantics comes into play.
Another aspect of semantics can be exporting your index as RDF, or Topic Map.
In any case, there is a lot of thinking to be done on the subject, and I am no "semantic expert", so if you wish to discuss it, just drop some email to compass mailing lists.
Cheers
Shay

Hi,
" We are please to announce the initial release of Compass, a new concept in semantic Search Engine/Object Mapping (OSEM) technology. Compass is a Java framework, built on top of the Lucene Search Engine, making it simple to map your Java object model into a Search Engine. Providing a powerful new tool for application development. Compass introduces declaritive mapping technology OSEM (similar to O/R database mapping), transaction management, Google like query syntax (based on lucene), externalise common meta-data and much much more. "
You are the first to know, and I would really appreciate your comments about the project and possible enhancements. We can continue the thread here, but I would be happy if comments and enhancements would be recorded on the project (compass) mailing lists.

I would be very interesting to hear/read more about the compass::semantics how this will be realized. I don't mean the code I mean the models behind (like rdf ontologies,...) thx Stefan
