PingTheSemanticWeb and Sitemaps

Dear all:

I am sure you all agree that PingTheSemanticWeb is a key service for 
many of our applications. Unfortunately, it does currently not support 
the bulk notification for datasets for which a semantic sitemap is 
available.

Since some of you maybe facing the same problem, I just put a short 
Python script on-line at

http://www.ebusiness-unibw.org/wiki/PTSW4Sitemaps

which you can use to notify PingTheSemanticWeb of multiple files using a 
given semantic sitemap.

Best
Martin
