[topicmapmail] Topic Map Editors

[Christopher Whitfield]

Hello Steve,

Thanks for confirming that Ontopia Knowledge Suite
should be included in my research. Also, I'll be sure
to take a look at "TED" and include it as well. I'll
be pleased to send you a copy of my thesis once it's
complete. Thanks
