[Sigia-l] multi-faceted & topic map

[hank99 at bway.net]

I'm hoping to pick the collective brain. I'm part of teams that's building
an extranet from the ground up. The client has specifically asked for a
taxonomy. In thinking about a solution, they are prime candidate for
multi-faceted classification.

As a I was digging for ideas on execution, topic maps were thrown into the
research mix. I'm left a little confused as to how they work with the
classification structure. Are the two mutually exclusive? And if not, I'm
not quite sure how they work together.

Thanks.
