I've was involved in discussions about traditional library science
techniques and how they relate to topic maps on this list a while
back, without really being able to express my view fully. I've now
written a paper on the subject, which I hope explains better what it
was I tried to say.

So, if you want to know how topic maps and ontologies compare to
traditional IA techniques like taxonomies and thesauri, you may want
to read my paper, which can be found at:

Any feedback, reactions, and comments are *more* than welcome.

Thanks!
