Kjetil,
I had the good fortune of seeing the site and when I saw an mage, titled "The
origin of the world" I knew hackers would take down the site. There is a text
on the temporary site" The Europeana site is temporarily not accessible due to
overwhelming interest after its launch (10
million hits per hour), which smells of denial of service after
a massive attack.
The site is part of the Digital Library Project of the European Union. I
recommend you check with Jonathan Purday
(http://www.kb.nl/nieuws/2008/europeana-en.html).
Or go to" http://ec.europa.eu/information_society/index_en.htm and look for
semantic web programs and projects.

This looks very interesting, but now the site went down from
overwhelming traffic. Whoops. Does anyone here have more information
about the use of Semantic Web in this effort?
