DMOZ Category Slices
I can download and gunzip the DMOZ RDF file in less than 20 minutes. I've written a (very) small CGI-Perl script (run locally - to be moved to site web server when testing complete) that slices the RDF file into separate files (18) - one file per top category. Splitting into subcategories is just as easy, and will be available by request. The script takes about 5 minutes to run. The job from start to end, takes less than half an hour to complete. I'll be making the top category files available in the next week or so (pending completion of other higher priority projects). The files will be updated weekly (automatically). There will be a fee (payable via PayPal). But given the ease of the job, the fee will be nominal - mainly to offset bandwidth costs, and to compensate for time involved. I'll announce details regarding where and when the files can be downloaded - announcement will be as reply to this message.
