[Sigia-l] MS Taxonomy Manager

Peter Morville mentioned this fledgling Microsoft product at the IA Summit. 
It provides a user interface to manage a taxonomy, a SQL database to store 
it in, and access to it by external web services. The possibilities are 
fascinating. Besides having a real UI (vs. a spreadsheet) to manage a 
taxonomy, you could, for example, configure a search engine to access the 
taxonomy and provide search results with hierarchical paths, like what 
Yahoo and Home Depot do.

Anyone have anymore info or experience with the product?
