No pointers at the moment; I'm playing with an XSLT templates based
tool that converts many-to-many XML based thesauri formats, with a
core simple Topic Maps XML format, and I'm trying out using SKOS as
the core ontology, mapping in ontologies found elsewhere. I've had
quite a number of interested folks in this stuff. I wanted to wait for
it to mature a bit, but I haven't had too much time lately, so maybe I
should just release it into the wild.

Would like, for sure, but don't have the finances to drag my bottom
all the way to Europe; working for an insignificant part of government
does that to you. :)
