Hi Jaakko,

Denny is in charge of fixing the Ontology Import code, but I must admit that 
it currently is not our top priority. The reason is that we found that 
importing ontologies and refactoring of wiki pages can be done far better by 
using an additional (in our case: Python-based) toolkit. An HTML-form just 
doesn't provide you with the flexibility you need for custom import tasks.

Denny: could you please send us the pointers to your toolkit and maybe an 
example snippet of how to use it?

Best regards,

Markus
