Wiki has got way too much data to stuff in a single iddy biddy RAM-limited db (that is until someone can donate me a fully-populated, 64-bit, quad-processor machine).

I used World Hierarchy figuratively. Underlying data will actually form a spaghetti structure. When veiwed thru a tree view it will look hierarchal. When viewed thru a table it will look tabular. When view thru an API it will look pointeral. Received on Wed Jan 10 2007 - 23:44:38 CET
