Hello All,

I'm interested in adding a feature to Semantic MediaWiki, and I'd like to
hear what the community thinks about it.  But first, I was wondering: How
likely will Wikipedia adopt SMW some time in the future?

I'm interested in creating a parser that uses ontologies to help with
parsing.  For example, a functional property might be used like a regular
expression "?" and no upper cardinality restriction could be used like a
regular expression "*".  Also, tag info could be used to help the parser
know which property to use next while parsing.  Of course, the
implementation would be much more complicated than I can describe in an
email.  I think this type of parser would be useful because it will allow
people who have a bunch of data in text format to easily set up the grammar
for the data and integrate it into the SMW database.

How well would this mesh with the rest of the work going on in SMW?  Would
it be best for me to develop this in the main SMW source code, a branch, or
an extension?  Is there anybody else who would like to collaborate with this
project?  Any other questions or comments would be appreciated.

Nate
