ANN: Skosify 0.5 + online version, SKOS validation and correction

Hello!

I'm pleased to announce Skosify 0.5, a tool for validating and 
correcting SKOS vocabularies and converting from legacy formats to SKOS. 
New in this release is an online version of the tool [1] which can be 
used to perform the most validating and correction tasks with a web 
interface, without installing Skosify locally.

Skosify can be used to find and, in many cases, correct many common 
problems in SKOS files. The program takes a SKOS RDF file as input and 
outputs a processing report as well as a corrected vocabulary file.

The code is available on Google Code [2] and is open source, under the 
MIT license. The tool is implemented in Python, using rdflib.

Skosify is currently used to convert, validate and correct many 
ontologies developed and published in the FinnONTO projects. More 
information about the project, including a paper manuscript, can be 
found at the Skosify project page [3].

I'm grateful for any comments. Bug reports or requests for features can 
be submitted to the issue tracker at the Google Code site.

Thanks,
Osma Suominen
