XML Taxonomies for Import?
This is the tool to use to help all sites use pre-filled vocabularies.
It would be nice if someone were to nominate a place and a syntax for folk to contribute their own lists.
I'm guessing even a project branch of its own here would allow CVS patches to these XML files.
I constructed a structured taxonomy of all US (and territories) states and counties - 690 KB!
I'd love to give it back somehow.
(I also think that the drupal-unly schema needs revision, but that's just because I like RDF :-)
I also have a CSV-import addition to the module, if anyone's interested in me patching that in...
#1
dman, I'd be very interested in the CSV import feature...look forward to your patch.
#2
Shouldn't this be in the Location module?
#3
That specific schema, maybe.
What I'm looking for here is a good, solid syntax for taxonomy interchange. The data dump is just one example. I don't use location for anything yet - it was just for tagging.
