Re: Faceted Classification and Data Warehouses, etc.

Roy;
 
This sounds very similar to the approach I'm taking with my architecture. 
 
Wouldn't it be cool if someone recognized that the categories that manage  
financial information in a drill down (faceted) manner could be used to manage  
content in the same way? Instead of rolling up dollar amounts, you could roll 
up  collections of content. 
 
The principles are the same - and with faceted classification, you can  still 
find the individual 'entries' like a check register while gaining the  
benefit of linking to the categories to give different views. 
 
I like it! I look forward to loking at GEM when your site gets back on its  
feet.
