[seek-kr] Re: next steps for KR/SMS

[Bertram Ludaescher]

Hi Rich:

Getting married huh? Congratulations! 

Hey -- before you go into merry marry land (and on honey moon??), two
quick questions:

1. would you have a simple XML or RDF or whatever version of your
ontology lying around? Where? Thanks! (will do some Prolog hacks on it 
if you don't mind)

2. cna you explain me with an example how I can do unit conversions
based on the EML unit dictionary? 

Ideally can you send both things right now? I'm working on a short
report on my unit dictionary hack at the last SEEK dev meeting in SD. 
And (1) and even more so (2) would be helpful.

cheers

Bertram
