Pat,
thanks for the link
I first heard of this tool from Duane on this list 26 Jan, and still
trying to work out how to use it (I am not a API developer) I hope
this will be made available as a web based app soon ), if not, I will
have to hire someone to develop one (even the reuters thing needs to
be downloaded so far)    (01)

I  agree, and think that such functionality can be useful to aid
concept extraction for further refinement. How does the system
identify the classes, objects and relations I dont understand, do they
have to be in RDF? Or how does it do it? (haven't read the
documentation)    (04)
