The AF war diary

Hi all,

While I tried to shut up and hesitate from commenting the Afghanistan
TM any further than I've said in [1], I saw Patrick's post [2] and
Are's post [3] and the comments to Patrick's post [4]

Well, you may see some frictions between these posts.

An exercise: Provide facts/questions/advantages which are solved by
<http://maiana.topicmapslab.de/u/efi/tm/wd2004> which cannot be solved
by <http://cryptome.net/afg-war-diary.sql.7z>.

The Emnekart 2011 entry about the Wikileaks Afghanistan War Log says:

    """
    [...]
    Publishers like Spiegel Online spent several months before the
    release, manually analyzing the data. With semantic tools this
    could have been much easier…
    [...]
    """

I won't attend Emnekart 2011 but I'd be interested why Der Spiegel
should have used Topic Maps.
