[topicmapmail] Web services for Topic Maps

[Robert Parks]

Dear all,
I am creating a web API for the Wordsmyth Dictionary-Thesaurus, which 
includes a word-relations semantic network (with a number of 
relations like "people associated with" and "instrument used for" in 
addition to those in WordNet - part of, and kind of).  Does anyone 
have advice on how to represent the data so it would be useful for 
those constructing Topic Maps?  Os SQL adequate or does it need to be 
stored as a topic map?
