Hi guys,

I'm studying about XTM for my thesis and I have an basic idea, that
probably occurred before in this list, but I can't found an oficial
answer:

If the XTM is better than RDF for index, as appoint by Lars Marius in
his work " Topic maps, RDF, DAML, OIL: a Comparison. In Ontopia."
www.ontopia.net/topicmaps/materials/tmrdfoildaml.html,
why the DMOZ isn't exported to XTM yet ?

If is due politics reasons, why not create a new world website index
from the DMOZ records, and utilizing the XTM bennefits, like the TMQL,
using the Onmiggattor code adapted ?

Thank for you support,
Marcel
