Thanks for all the help guys. I downloaded dbpedia extraction framework and
would like to read through the code. My background in scala should help in
understanding concepts faster. I haven't made up my mind about how many
languages and all that. I guess I'll start with english. I am not even sure
that travelwiki guys do a dump like wikipedia does. Anyways, great job with
dbpedia guys, and thanks again for all the help.
