DMOZ import

Is it possible to import the files found at
http://dmoz.org/rdf.html
into Links2 or is there software that will convert it?

There are also several programs that help with it. You don't get the data directly from the RDF file, but its still pretty clever. Try searchingGoogle for "Links Suite".

Hmmm Is there any way to just get the Dmoz directory or category structure and not the data? Also how many links or categorys can Links 2.0 handle? When would it be a good time to upgrade to Links SQL? Thanks!

Well, it would be a good idea to look at upgrading now Tongue

Links SQL has a seperate script, nph-import.cgi, which will allow you to import as much of DMOZ as your server can handle :)
