I think as the first step SWIP can easily make use of the metadata +
let the SWIP link directly into REASE (so SWIP becomes an alternative
access interface to the data in REASE).
I have enclosed the current RDF format we have for the metadata (it
might be in an ugly format; it is quite old and has been created way
before I joined the project; however, it might still be of use for
you). This data is freely available on REASE in anyway, but you can
save crawling our server using the rdf's directly...
Best regards,
