TEST: DAML+OIL to OWL converter (p.s. to SEM)

One of my students has written a PERL script for converting DAML+OIL 
to OWL [1], We've converted a number of the ontologies in the DAML 
library [2] and it seems to work, although we haven't checked all the 
intricacies of namespaces and etc - our testing continues.  Please 
feel free to try this out -- we will attempt to keep this up to date 
with resolved issues that can be syntactically mapped.
  -JH
p.s. SEM: it is worth considering that getting through candidate rec 
may be hastened if we can honestly show the DAML ontologies and tools 
can be used with OWL - when we consider semantic divergences, we need 
to make sure we either provide a mapping (if possible) or have a good 
story as to how these things convert/translate.
