No, there's no import mechanism.
What's interesting me is the idea that this questionaire corresponds to
an OWL class hierarchy. Every check box seems to indicate whether the
rule language under consideration is an instance of some class. (In
some cases it might be better thought of as a property restriction, I suppose.)
The subclass hierarchy corresponds to the nesting/chaining of
descriminators Hassan wants. The either-or questions correspond to
disjoint subclasses.
I'm musing over the possibility of generating the WBS back-end data
from such an ontology -- what other data might be needed, how much
programming would it take, would the code be useful for anything else?
-- and visa versa, for bootstrapping the ontology.
If anyone's interested in hacking on this, let me know and I can get you
a dump of the SQL back end.
